Comparative Studies of Somatosensory Systems and Active Sensing system. Here the results of numerous studies of brain and behavior in shrews and moles are reviewed and discussed. Water shrews have elaborate whiskers and can detect prey based on both texture and movement. In contrast to rodents, shrew whiskers are not reflected by barrels in the cortex, but are

Synaptic Microcircuits in the Barrel Cortex elementary units process sensory information arriving from peripheral receptors; they are vertically oriented throughout all cortical layers and contain several thousands of excitatory and inhibitory synaptic connections. To understand how sensory signals are transformed into electrical activity in

Imaging the Cortical Representation of Active Sensing in the Vibrissa Systemy information gathered is processed in the vibrissa system, a hierarchical network of interacting brain regions, comprising brainstem nuclei, thalamus subdivisions and neocortical regions. In the neocortex, neural representations of whisking and touch are formed to guide and adapt behavior given the

The Rodent Vibrissal System as a Model to Study Motor Cortex Function motor cortex have remained conjectural. It is clear that motor cortex holds a topographic map of body parts. However, does that necessarily imply that motor cortex itself undertakes the challenging task of converting movement plans (i.e. intended trajectories and effects of actions) into low level

Functional Principles of Whisker-Mediated Touch Perceptionfunctional roles; here we review recent progress in our understanding of the principles for response organization in the system. The whisker’s mechanical properties and anchoring to the follicle shape the forces transmitted to specialized receptors. The sensory and motor systems are intimately inter

Location Coding by the Whisking Systemficiently traceable at anatomical, functional and behavioral levels. Our topic herein is the process by which whisking rodents can encode and decode sensory stimuli to build complex perceptions of their external environment, using object localization as a representative case.
