To sensibly interact with the environment, like when grasping objects and navigating through
space, the brain needs to compute not only target- and environment-related inputs, but also …

The neural mechanisms underpinning visuo-manual plasticity can be viewed as a powerful
rehabilitation tool that produces straightforward effects not only on visual and motor …

In close analogy with neurophysiological findings in monkeys, neuropsychological studies
have shown that the human brain constructs visual maps of space surrounding different body …

A large proportion of right-hemisphere stroke patients show hemispatial neglect—a neurological
deficit of perception, attention, representation, and/or performing actions within their left-…

Recent findings from neurophysiology, neuropsychology and psychology have shown that
peri-personal space is represented through an integrated multisensory processing. In humans…

Previous studies have shown that adaptation to rightward displacing prisms improves
performance of neglect patients on visuo-manual (VM) tasks such as line cancellation, figure …

Humans and monkeys share similar sensory integrated processing of tactile and peri-hand
visual inputs for coding peripersonal space surrounding the hand. In monkeys, tool use is …

To control bodily movements the human brain relies on a somatosensory representation
referred to as the body schema [1]. The almost century-old hypothesis that tool-use induces …

According to current textbook knowledge, the primary somatosensory cortex (SI) supports
unilateral tactile representations, whereas structures beyond SI, in particular the secondary …

The ability to extend sensory information processing beyond the nervous system 1 has been
observed throughout the animal kingdom; for example, when rodents palpate objects using …
