1/n. Thrilled to announce our new paper (nature.com/articles/s41586-0…) is out today in @Nature! The core finding is that our visual cortex is unexpectedly tiled with touch-based body maps.

🧵New preprint with @cvnlab, @tnaselar & @tknapen: How does the brain connect vision and touch representations to infuse vision with body-related meaning? TLDR: We found high-level visual cortex is tiled with maps 'multiplexing' vision and touch. tinyurl.com/seesoma 1/n

These findings complement recent work indicating that dorsolateral visual cortex is a fundamentally multi-sensory part of the brain whose role extends beyond passive visual analysis to encompass semantic and bodily information relevant to interactions with the world. 20/n

Our results indicate the brain uses aligned, 'multiplexed' topographic maps to structure connections between vision and somatosensation. The computational machinery classically attributed to the somatosensory system is embedded within/aligned with that of the "visual" system. 🧵
