If you are at #SfN25 and interested in proprioception or motor skill learning, stop by our posters! Sunday morning (L14) and Tuesday morning (T5).

🧠Want to start a #PhD in sensorimotor #neuroscience in Fall 2026? Our NIH- and NSF-funded lab at @iubloomington.bsky.social uses human behavior and noninvasive brain stimulation to study motor learning and perception. More info: blocklab.net/openings.html or hjblock@iu.edu. Deadline is Dec. 15.

🚨It's published! 🚨Our results support highly-simplified-model "B", if you're wondering. The Somatosensory Cortex and Body Representation: Updating the Motor System during a Visuoproprioceptive Cue Conflict www.jneurosci.org/content/45/3...

Found it! Not significantly different from younger adults, but very small samples. And different method from yours. brill.com/view/journal...

(5/5)... recalibration expected. As you can see, the control group pointed at the V cue throughout its gradual displacement (A). The lack of undershoot indicates subject laziness is not the cause of V cue undershoot when the real cue conflict is present. (positive values in B = V cue undershoot)

(3/5) Bonus expt: Is visual recalibration real? I get asked this because we do the cue conflict by gradually shifting the visual cue away from the proprioceptive cue. When subjects undershoot visual cues on unimodal trials (blue arrow), it could be because they're too lazy to point further away ...

(1/5)📢Now with bonus experiment!📢Somatosensory cortex and body representation. When hand representation is modified by introducing a conflict between visual and proprioceptive cues, the motor system receives updates directly from primary somatosensory cortex (SI). www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

📢New preprint! The brain may handle visuo-proprioceptive cue conflicts differently for a dynamic hand undergoing visuomotor adaptation than for a static hand. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
