The paper shows adaptation in somatosensory afferents improves rate and temporal coding of vibrotactile stimulus features by modulating spiking in different ways.

The paper models spinal dorsal horn processing of tactile stimuli to explain why certain stimuli cause allodynia and how spinal cord stimulation can alleviate it.

This study investigates the coding properties of low-threshold mechanoreceptors in rodent glabrous skin, showing their heterogeneity and how they encode vibrotactile stimuli through rate and temporal coding.

This study shows that kilohertz-frequency spinal cord stimulation activates dorsal column axons but causes asynchronous spiking, leading to paresthesia-free analgesia.

The paper develops a computational model of the spinal dorsal horn to study how chronic pain alters neural processing.
