🧠Want to start a #PhD in sensorimotor #neuroscience in Fall 2026? Our NIH- and NSF-funded lab @IUBloomington uses human behavior and noninvasive brain stimulation to study motor learning and perception. More info: blocklab.net/openings.html or [email protected]. Deadline is Dec. 15.

Find out how the brain deals with conflicting cues in this #ArticleinPress, Timing of responses to gradual and abrupt #visuo-proprioceptive cue conflict with and without feedback (Reshma Babu et al. @IUBloomington):

🚨It's published! 🚨Our results support highly-simplified-model "B", if you're wondering. The Somatosensory Cortex and Body Representation: Updating the Motor System during a Visuoproprioceptive Cue Conflict jneurosci.org/content/45/32/…

My research group is looking for a postdoctoral fellow to study the principles of coadaptation between human-human and human-adaptive agent pairs. Ad below. Please retweet!

Anyone who teaches undergrad motor control and learning: are you willing to share syllabus, labs, or assignments with me? I'm teaching an honors section in the spring for the first time! We have lots of pre-PT/OT students and I'm using this book: amazon.com/Motor-Control-Tra…
Hey #sfn2024 attendees, if you're interested in visuo-proprioceptive hand perception and recalibration: Come see our poster! Tuesday afternoon, board H40. 👉👈🧠

Hey we are hiring! Would love to have some colleagues at Emory in BME working in sensorimotor systems and related technologies that cross the basic/clinical divide!
(1/4) 🚨New preprint!🚨
Somatosensory cortex and body representation: Updating the motor system during a visuo-proprioceptive cue conflict

(3/4) ...the primary somatosensory cortex (S1). These updates are proprioceptive, having not yet been integrated with visual cues through interaction with high-level posterior parietal regions. This might provide advantages in terms of faster updates, for example, because...
Looks great! I'm looking forward to reading this.
🚨New paper just dropped! 🚨
This one has been quite a journey and a big effort from @FQuirmbach! 💪

Short thread w/ main findings below 👇
📢New preprint! The brain may handle visuo-proprioceptive cue conflicts differently for a dynamic hand undergoing visuomotor adaptation than for a static hand. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
Also: is visual recalibration an artifact of subject laziness? It seems not. We included groups 5 and 6 specifically to answer this question. We have been calling it "the JT experiment". 😄 @tsay_jonathan
📢Multiple tenured and tenure-track faculty positions in neuroscience of aging and CNS diseases at Indiana University-Bloomington 📢
Apply by Oct. 21 for best consideration. Please RT!

For decades, Robert Sainburg pushed against the conventional wisdom about how the brain controls the body. Today, his research is improving treatments for people who survive strokes. Learn more ow.ly/CvIW50SzVcf
Chat GPT just made me a planned NIH inclusion/enrollment report! 🤯🤯🤯 I had to give it some follow-up instructions, but wow.
