New results! Faster parietal alpha frequency sharpens the temporal window for vision–touch integration, yielding a more precise sense of one’s own body. Slower alpha widens it. Nature Communications. Link and thread by @DAngeloMariano below

Happy to share our new study on the role of alpha frequency in integrating self-related sensory information into a coherent perceptual experience of one’s body! With @BrainSelf at @karolinskainst, out now in Nature Communications @NatureComms nature.com/articles/s4146…

Our new PNAS study shows that bodily self-perception has privileged access to consciousness. While vision and hearing often involve unconscious processing, the sense of one’s own body appears to emerge directly in awareness. See link and thread below.

Happy to share our new and groundbreaking study on the relationship between conscious awareness and the sense of bodily self! With @BrainSelf at @karolinskainst and out in PNAS @PNASNews : pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

New study led by @PTacikowski shows that reducing body ownership through a perceptual illusion leads to fragmentation in self-concept. This link between the bodily and conceptual self may shed light on dissociative experiences and mental health. cell.com/iscience/fullt…

New study out in iScience, led by @coppi_sara: During the rubber hand illusion, pain is mislocalized toward the rubber hand, just like touch and proprioception. This nociceptive drift reveals how pain, like other senses, is integrated into the bodily self. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40546968/

Feeling fear through a fake body? Our new study, led by @RyuOhata, shows that illusory body ownership amplifies subjective fear in response to nearby fear-relevant animals (spiders) and increases fear of safety-margin violations. nature.com/articles/s4159…

New preprint exploring the role of alpha oscillations in integrating self-related sensory information and distinguishing the bodily self from external events. See link and thread below. Led by @DAngeloMariano
Mariano D'Angelo@DAngeloMariano

In a new preprint we demonstrated that the frequency of alpha oscillations plays a crucial role in binding self-related sensory information into a coherent perceptual experience of one’s body and distinguishing this bodily self from external sensory events biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

What is the relationship between conscious awareness and unconscious processing in the multisensory perception of our own bodies? In our new preprint, led by @Renzo_Lanfranco, we investigated this question—and the findings surprised us! Link to preprint and thread below. #Science #Perception
Renzo Lanfranco@Renzo_Lanfranco

How does the perception of our bodily self arise in our experience, and to what extent do we process body ownership information unconsciously? In a new study (preprint), we found body ownership information processing cannot occur without awareness. 0/14👇doi.org/10.31234/osf.i…
