DOI: 10.1109/tbme.2017.2762461
Abstract: Objective: We propose a novel calibration strategy to facilitate the decoding of covert somatosensory attention by exploring the oscillatory dynamics induced by tactile sensation. Methods: It was hypothesized that the similarity of the oscillatory pattern… read more here.

DOI: 10.1177/15459683221107893
Abstract: Background. Up to 85% of people with chronic stroke experience somatosensory impairment, which contributes to poor sensorimotor control and non-use of the affected limb. Neurophysiological mechanisms suggest motor rehabilitation may improve tactile sense post-stroke, however,… read more here.
