NeuroSelfTickle explores the neural mechanisms behind the sensation of tickling, particularly how self-generated movements affect tactile perception. Using advanced neuroimaging techniques, the project aims to uncover how the brain differentiates between self and external touch.
In perception, neural responses are never identical, even to the same sensory stimuli.
This variability is particularly evident in the somatosensory domain: why does the same tactile input feel ticklish when applied by others but not by ourselves?
The phenomenon of self-tickle cancellation has intrigued philosophers, biologists, and psychologists for centuries.
Motor control theories propose that self-generated movements elicit top-down predictions in the cerebellum that suppress bottom-up tacti…
