Feedback control undistorts body representations: A possible solution to the hand paradox
doi.org/10.31234/osf.io/ryst…
New theory paper with @peviani_v where we take a stab at reconciling the seemingly contradictory findings of distorted body representations & optimal motor control
Humans project tactile sensations from a tool into space, as if part of the body. How? We show tactile feedback is projected into gaze-centered coordinates, offering a framework for tool-based sensory projection.

This is our paper for the special issue celebrating Vincent Hayward.
Very happy to see this out!
Off to Verona for the @bodyrepnetwork conference to present my first post-doc poster on finger-extending exoskeletons & tactile localization! Grateful to work with @peviani_v & @LukeMillerNeuro. Excited to share & for all the cool studies ahead! #BRNet6

❗ 🥙 Eating disorders impact ~200,000 people in the Netherlands each year. @ValeriaPeviani studies how our brains create distorted images of our bodies, focusing on hands and fingers with VR and motion tracking for better treatment: 👉

📌 Can fine-grained spatial maps of the limb and hand-held tool be constructed based on somatosensory feedback?
📌Do spatial maps change following tool use?
🔍Check it out!
Huge Thx to @peviani_v@LukeMillerNeuro@MichiBassolino for this collaboration.
Check out our new preprint looking at spatial accuracy and precision of arm and tool maps before and after tool use. With Leo Pfeifer, @GaiaRisso@MichiBassolino and @LukeMillerNeuro
