Control of primate prehension in space and time
(2021-05-11)Prehension in primates allows diverse interactions with the environment. It can be separated into two processes: the transport of the arm to the object, termed reach, and the getting hold and manipulation of the object, ... -
Investigating the causal effects of oscillations on intrinsic brain activity
(2019-03-04)Transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) is a promising tool for modulating brain oscillations. Combining tACS with functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), we recently showed that tACS applied over the ... -
Monkey see, monkey touch, monkey do: Influence of visual and tactile input on the fronto-parietal grasping network
(2020-06-12)One of the most common movements we do every day is grasping. Usually we do this with aid of our eyes, but other senses, like our sense of touch, can also assist in the preparation and execution of grasping movements. More ... -
Neuronal basis of goal-directed reach planning under reversed vision in the parietal and premotor cortices
(2013-10-09)In our everyday life we can produce goal-directed movements precisely and effortlessly, for example to saccade towards a location that you are interested in, or to reach and grasp for a cup of coffee. Goal-directed behaviors ... -
Perceptual and motor intentional processing in dorsal pulvinar
(2019-06-27)The pulvinar is the largest thalamic structure in the center of the brain, reciprocally connected to a large diversity of cortical areas. It has grown more than other subcortical structures during primate evolution, which ... -
Peripheral nervous system control for neuroprostheses
(2017-09-21)Amputee patients who have lost a hand or arm are severely impaired in their daily life, as they lose the ability to grasp and interact with their environment. While the use of electromyographically controlled prosthetic ... -
Pulvinar-cortical interactions for spatial perception and goal-directed actions in non-human primates
(2018-12-12)The pulvinar nucleus, the largest thalamic nucleus in primates, has been shown to be involved in goal-directed visuomotor behavior related to the contralateral side of visual space. However, there is conflicting evidence ... -
The impact of reward value on early sensory processing and its interaction with selective attention
(2021-11-22)Reward value affects the earliest stages of sensory perception. Whereas a host of previous studies have investigated the underlying mechanisms of reward-driven modulation of visual perception, reward effects in other sensory ... -
The role of thalamic pulvinar in eye-hand coordination for goal-directed actions
(2017-12-07)The pulvinar, the largest thalamic complex in primates has largely expanded during primate evolution, along with association cortices. Its dorsal part is anatomically connected to the fronto-parietal network, involved in ...
