Researchers at the University of Osaka have shown that stimulating two parts of the brain at the same time may create richer artificial touch sensations. The study tested whether simultaneously stimulating the primary somatosensory cortex (S1) and the insular cortex could produce sensations beyond the tingling or numbness typically elicited by S1 stimulation. The study is published in Brain Stimulation.
Simultaneous Brain Stimulation Enhances Artificial Touch Sensations
Researchers at the University of Osaka have discovered that stimulating the primary somatosensory cortex and the insular cortex simultaneously can enhance artificial touch sensations. This study, published in Brain Stimulation, could have implications for advancements in neuroprosthetics and sensory technology. Such developments may be of interest to Iran as they explore technological advancements in healthcare.
