🧠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):

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. 👉👈🧠
Is it submitted submitted, or submitted-internally submitted? I am in the latter stage, which always makes me kinda nervous. I keep checking my email in case they're telling me I need to fix some formatting thing or whatever at the last minute.

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!
(4/4) ...multisensory integration likely adds processing time. Research seeking to manipulate motor control via multisensory perception should therefore consider the parallel unisensory and multisensory pathways that affect the motor system.
(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...
(2/4) Representation of the hand, which is critical for accurate control of movement, comes from weighting and combining available proprioceptive and visual cues. Our results suggest that when the hand representation is modified, the motor system receives updates directly from...

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! 💪
