At least 3200 scientific publications refer to the Fab Four’s music—by far the most of any top-selling artist

Are you interested in understanding how attention shapes what we see? Would you like to combine behavioural experiments, psychophysics, and eye tracking to uncover how the brain selects and prioritise...

A central challenge in consciousness research is determining whether people truly experience a stimulus. Here, the authors show that context biases traditional detection measures, whereas continuous r...

Nature Communications - REPLY TO “The meaningfulness of searching for minimal exposure duration to understand visual perception”

Eye contact is one of the most potent social signals, but it remains unclear how little visual input is sufficient to register direct gaze, and whether such registration requires conscious awareness. ...

Abstract. The sense of owning one’s body is essential for distinguishing internal from external sensations. Research using bodily illusions shows that this

Detta handlar om rättssäkerhet, rättvisa och förutsägbarhet i svensk lagstiftning. Att införa en ny lag med skärpta krav är en sak – men att tillämpa den retroaktivt och ignorera en föreslagen övergån...

Gender and anxiety reveal distinct computational sources of underconfidence - Volume 56

A new study from Karolinska Institutet, published in Nature Communications, reveals how rhythmic brain waves known as alpha oscillations help us distinguish between our own body and the external world...

Vi tänker sällan på våra kroppar – förrän något går fel. Men bakom den skenbara enkelheten pågår något märkvärdigt: Hjärnan väver ständigt samman synintryck, beröringar …

Are you passionate about making societal impact through scientific innovation? We invite applications for a PhD project in the field of cognitive ...

A new study shows that visual and tactile impressions that are related to our own body are prioritised for reaching conscious awareness. This helps us understand how we develop the feeling that the bo...

The brain’s sense of “this is my body” is tightly bound to conscious awareness – far more than many theories assume.

Conscious awareness refers to the subjective experience of perceiving, thinking, and feeling and the ability to report these experiences. These per...

Interoception-the sensing and perception of the internal viscera-is widely cast as a transdiagnostic mechanism linking brain-body interaction to mental illness. Prevailing models propose that altered ...

Prevailing theories suggest that the brain uses an internal forward model to predict tactile input during voluntary movements, thereby reducing the intensity of the reafferent tactile sensation, a phe...

Tickle sensation remains one of the biggest unresolved mysteries in neuroscience—one that scientists are only beginning to unravel.
