Understanding both the organization of human cortex and its relation to performance distinct functions is fundamental in neuroscience. The primary sensory cortices display topographic organization, whereby receptive fields follow a characteristic pattern, from tonotopy retinotopy somatotopy [1]. GABAergic signaling vital maintenance cortical [2]; however, it unclear how this fine-grain inhibition relates measurable patterns perception [3, 4]. Based on perceptual changes following...
Experience-dependent reorganisation of functional maps in the cerebral cortex is well described primary sensory cortices. However, there relatively little evidence for such cortical over short-term. Using human somatosensory as a model, we investigated effects 24 hr gluing manipulation which right index and middle fingers (digits 2 3) were adjoined with surgical glue. Somatotopic representations, assessed two 7 tesla fMRI protocols, revealed rapid off-target non-manipulated following gluing,...
