VISUAL EXPERIENCE SHAPES ARM POSITION SENSE IN INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL REFERENCE FRAMES AND ASSOCIATED CORTICAL LOAD

This study compares arm position sense in visually impaired and sighted individuals, finding reduced accuracy and increased cognitive load in visually impaired participants, with greater demands for external coordinate tasks.

Sleep and emotional memory: translating neural response at encoding to memory accuracy in men and women with and without PTSD

The paper examines how sleep stages and PTSD status affect emotional memory accuracy through neural responses to visual stimuli in men and women.

Flexible regulation of representations on a drifting manifold enables long-term stable complex neuroprosthetic control

This study shows that neural representations for imagined movements remain stable over time, allowing long-term neuroprosthetic control without recalibration.

Sleep spindles favor emotion regulation over memory consolidation of stressors in PTSD

The paper investigates how NREM sleep spindles affect emotion regulation and memory consolidation in PTSD after stress exposure, finding increased spindles correlate with reduced anxiety but poorer memory recall.
