This project investigates how the brain processes surprising events, focusing on the role of the cerebellum and somatosensory cortex in predicting and responding to unexpected stimuli. Using rats and mice, it aims to understand the neuronal mechanisms that help organisms adapt to sudden changes in their environment.
Detecting surprising events, such as the sudden approach of a predator or an unexpected touch, is crucial for the survival of all species.
We aim to study neuronal mechanisms underlying surprising events.
In order to predict upcoming events, mental models of future actions are essential.
Where in the brain are such predictions and mental models created?
The somatosensory cortex might contain a body model, in which superficial layers provide context and sensory memories, and inputs from deeper la…
