Journal ArticleDOI
Cortical connections between dorsal and ventral visual streams in humans: Evidence by TMS/EEG co-registration.
TL;DR: It is confirmed that a great amount of information spreads from parietal cortex to different regions in the brain, supporting the idea that connections are more complex and articulated than those proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) on Parietal and Premotor Cortex during Planning of Reaching Movements
Pierpaolo Busan,Claudia Barbera,Mauro Semenic,Fabrizio Monti,Gilberto Pizzolato,Giovanna Pelamatti,Piero Paolo Battaglini +6 more
TL;DR: This data contributes to the understanding of cortical dynamics in the parieto-frontal network, and suggests that it is possible to interfere with the planning of reaching movements at different cortical points within a particular time window.
Journal ArticleDOI
Motor excitability evaluation in developmental stuttering: A transcranial magnetic stimulation study
Pierpaolo Busan,Pierpaolo Busan,Alessandro D'Ausilio,Alessandro D'Ausilio,Massimo Borelli,Fabrizio Monti,Giovanna Pelamatti,Gilberto Pizzolato,Luciano Fadiga,Luciano Fadiga +9 more
TL;DR: Lower corticospinal responses in the left hemisphere of DS were found, as indicated by a reduction of peak-to-peak MEP amplitudes compared to normal speakers, providing further evidence that DS may be a general motor deficit that also involves motor non-speech-related structures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vocal pitch discrimination in the motor system.
Alessandro D'Ausilio,Alessandro D'Ausilio,Ilaria Bufalari,Paola Salmas,Pierpaolo Busan,Luciano Fadiga,Luciano Fadiga +6 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that vocal pitch discrimination, in analogy with the articulatory component, requires the contribution of the motor system and that this effect is somatotopically organized.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tongue corticospinal modulation during attended verbal stimuli: priming and coarticulation effects.
Alessandro D'Ausilio,Alessandro D'Ausilio,Joanna Jarmolowska,Pierpaolo Busan,Ilaria Bufalari,Laila Craighero +5 more
TL;DR: Effects indicate that during speech listening an attentional-like mechanism driven by the motor system, based on a feed-forward anticipatory mechanism constantly verifying incoming information, is working allowing perceptual restoration.
