🫀🫂Gentle, slow stroke touch significantly moves the heart by lowering rate and increasing rhythmicity. This effect is much stronger when someone else touches us, in IEEE Trans Affective @diegocandiar @RebeccaBoehme

Happy to share my latest work on dynamic functional connectivity changes during social vs. non-social touch in autism. This study reveals atypical context-dependent modulation of connectivity associated with autism during touch observation. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Delighted to share our new paper about the link between top-down & bottom-up processes. Our findings show that low-force, slow-moving touch can improve heart rate variability and inhibitory control, as evidenced by faster processing speed @valentinacazza2 @mcglonefp @davidebruno
