Eye, hand and space representations and causal interference in bihemispheric pulvinar-parietal circuitry
(2019-05-29)Recent research proposes that a proper action is the outcome of continuous competition between multiple frontoparietal neuronal representations of possible response options and this competition is biased by the input ... -
Visual information processing, welfare, and cognition in the rhesus macaque
(2017-10-20)Visual information processing, welfare, and cognition in the rhesus macaque - Chapter one deals with motion and disparity in macaque monkeys' area MST and their functional independence. Chapter two relates with the advantages ... -
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 ... -
Towards population coding principles in the primate premotor and parietal grasping network
(2017-01-03)As humans, the only way for us to interact with the world around us is by utilizing our highly trained motor system. Therefore, understanding how the brain generates movement is essential to understanding all aspects of ... -
Neural coding of grasp force planning and control in macaque areas AIP, F5, and M1
(2016-10-27)Much research has been done in the last decades to decipher how the brain controls grasping movements. The anterior intraparietal area (AIP), the hand area of the ventral premotor cortex (F5), and the hand area of the ... -
Reference frames for planning reach movement in the parietal and premotor cortices
(2016-02-16)Human and nonhuman primates are able to plan and execute goal-directed behavior and flexibly respond to their surrounding stimuli. Their ability to adapt to changes in their environment is a crucial factor for their ... -
Continuous detection and prediction of grasp states and kinematics from primate motor, premotor, and parietal cortex
(2015-05-11)Neuroprosthetics aim to restore a paralyzed patient’s ability to interact with the environment, e.g., by enabling the patient to control a robot arm and hand with his or her brain activity by decoding movement intentions ... -
From vision to action: Hand representations in macaque grasping areas AIP, F5, and M1
(2014-12-19)Grasping and manipulating objects of different shapes is a fundamental feature of the primate hand. This skill requires the transformation of visual object information into corresponding hand actions. In the primate brain ... -
An Exploration of Real-Time Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging Neurofeedback in Cognition
(2014-10-31)This thesis deals with an extensive exploration of the use of rt-fMRI neurofeedback in cognition. Specifically, the work presented here comprises the major steps in the development of a suitable experimental framework for ... -
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 ... -
Spatial, feature and temporal attentional mechanisms in visual motion processing
(2013-06-27)The three projects documented in this thesis investigated the role of three forms of attention in visual processing. Spatial, feature-based and temporal attention. The spatial and feature-based attentional characteristics ...
