Researchers at Johns Hopkins Medicine say they unexpectedly found new information about a protein's special role in getting ...

The cerebral cortex processes sensory information via a complex network of neural connections. How are these signals modulated to refine perception? A team from the University of Geneva (UNIGE) has ...

New research reveals this inconsistency may be due to a feedback loop between the thalamus and somatosensory cortex, where thalamic input subtly changes how sensitive cortical neurons are to incoming ...

UNIGE researchers have identified a feedback loop from the thalamus to the somatosensory cortex that modulates touch ...

Sometimes a gentle touch feels sharp and distinct, other times it fades into the background. This inconsistency isn’t just ...
