See you at #BRNET2026! I'll be giving a short talk today (~16:20, Palazzo Bo, Padova) on the role of body ownership in visuo-nociceptive interactions within peripersonal space. 🧠✨

Sono entusiasta di annunciare la pubblicazione del mio primo libro 📚 Perfetto per chi vuole esplorare il tatto, il nostro primo senso ed il più sottovalutato🫳🤌🤝Disponibile dal 12 novembre! @UtetLibri #Tatto #LetturaScientifica #Neuroscienze #Psicologia amzn.eu/d/0Tygn9Y

According to a new study in the journal PAIN, the feeling of owning our bodies is created by combining information from multiple senses, such as nociceptive pain, vision, and proprioception. Research by @coppi_sara et al.

When complex information, such as faces, enters our eyes, the brain extracts attributes through a series of steps, with integrated information emerging alongside conscious awareness, according to a study in @NatureComms. Research @Renzo_Lanfranco

In our new @NatureComms paper, we investigate the visual system's priorities for extracting meaningful information from faces and bringing it to conscious awareness. We use a new tachistoscope that enables visual presentations as short as 0.002 ms: nature.com/articles/s41467-0… (🧵👇)

Temporal structure of experience etched on firing of human hippocampal-entorhinal neurons to serve memory & prediction. See our study @Nature at @UCLANsgy, great work by lead author @PTacikowski with @GuldamlaKalendr & @DavideCili support @NIH_NINDS.

We are so glad to be on the cover of @IASPpain!
Read our new discovery published with @BrainSelf and Karin Jensen!
The cover of #PAIN’s October issue depicts the nociceptive rubber hand illusion paradigm, which induces a perceptual feeling that a prosthetic hand is one’s own limb. Illustration by @mattias_karlen. See @coppi_sara et al.’s article bit.ly/47CNuOw #painawarenessmonth

Come to my talk today, Wednesday 3 July, at @ASSC27tokyo on bodily self-awareness, conscious access to multisensory signals, models of signal detection, metacognition, and perceptual evidence accumulation. Or why is our experience of bodily self so stable | @theASSC #ASSC27 – at Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo

An fMRI study suggests that adaptation to sensorimotor delays when touching one hand with the other dynamically alters the activity in somatosensory and cerebellar regions. @kkilteni_neuro, @TickleLab, @BrainSelf

New paper out with Marcelo Arancibia & Juan Carlos Martínez! This is a report on a shocking case of dissociative identity disorder ("multiple personalities") that we assessed & treated a long time ago, during my clinical days. Now published in Neurocase: tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.…

Crucianelli, Reader & Ehrsson review the neuroanatomical basis of the sense of body ownership – i.e. the feeling that your body belongs to you – and propose that it results from the activity of both cortical and subcortical areas of the brain. tinyurl.com/2wpk58zu
