Rubber hand illusion highlights massive visual capture and sensorimotor face-hand remapping in a tetraplegic man (2014)
Journal Article
Tidoni, E., Grisoni, L., Liuzza, M. T., & Aglioti, S. M. (2014). Rubber hand illusion highlights massive visual capture and sensorimotor face-hand remapping in a tetraplegic man. Restorative Neurology and Neuroscience, 32(5), 611-622. https://doi.org/10.3233/RNN-130385

Purpose: The illusory ownership of a fake hand as part the body follows synchronous tactile stimulation over a visible rubber hand and a covered hand. Whether brain plasticity mechanisms after sensory and motor disconnection modulates this illusion r...

Illusory movements induced by tendon vibration in right- and left-handed people (2014)
Journal Article
Tidoni, E., Fusco, G., Leonardis, D., Frisoli, A., Bergamasco, M., & Aglioti, S. M. (2015). Illusory movements induced by tendon vibration in right- and left-handed people. Experimental Brain Research, 233(2), 375-383. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00221-014-4121-8

Frequency-specific vibratory stimulation of peripheral tendons induces an illusion of limb movement that may be useful for restoring proprioceptive information in people with sensorimotor disability. This potential application may be limited by inter... Read More about Illusory movements induced by tendon vibration in right- and left-handed people.

Audio-visual feedback improves the BCI performance in the navigational control of a humanoid robot (2014)
Journal Article
Tidoni, E., Gergondet, P., Kheddar, A., & Aglioti, S. M. (2014). Audio-visual feedback improves the BCI performance in the navigational control of a humanoid robot. Frontiers in Neurorobotics, 8(JUN), Article 20. https://doi.org/10.3389/fnbot.2014.00020

Advancement in brain computer interfaces (BCI) technology allows people to actively interact in the world through surrogates. Controlling real humanoid robots using BCI as intuitively as we control our body represents a challenge for current research...

Rubber hand illusion induced by touching the face ipsilaterally to a deprived hand: evidence for plastic "somatotopic" remapping in tetraplegics (2014)
Journal Article
Scandola, M., Tidoni, E., Avesani, R., Brunelli, G., Aglioti, S. M., & Moro, V. (2014). Rubber hand illusion induced by touching the face ipsilaterally to a deprived hand: evidence for plastic "somatotopic" remapping in tetraplegics. Frontiers in human neuroscience, 8(JUNE), Article 404. https://doi.org/10.3389/fnhum.2014.00404

Background: Studies in animals and humans indicate that the interruption of body-brain connections following spinal cord injury (SCI) leads to plastic cerebral reorganization.

Objective: To explore whether inducing the Rubber Hand Illusion (RHI) via... Read More about Rubber hand illusion induced by touching the face ipsilaterally to a deprived hand: evidence for plastic "somatotopic" remapping in tetraplegics.

Kinematics fingerprints of leader and follower role-taking during cooperative joint actions (2013)
Journal Article
Sacheli, L. M., Tidoni, E., Pavone, E. F., Aglioti, S. M., & Candidi, M. (2013). Kinematics fingerprints of leader and follower role-taking during cooperative joint actions. Experimental Brain Research, 226(4), 473-486. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00221-013-3459-7

Performing online complementary motor adjustments is quintessential to joint actions since it allows interacting people to coordinate efficiently and achieve a common goal. We sought to determine whether, during dyadic interactions, signaling strateg... Read More about Kinematics fingerprints of leader and follower role-taking during cooperative joint actions.

Action simulation plays a critical role in deceptive action recognition (2013)
Journal Article
Tidoni, E., Borgomaneri, S., di Pellegrino, G., & Avenanti, A. (2013). Action simulation plays a critical role in deceptive action recognition. Journal of Neuroscience, 33(2), 611-623. https://doi.org/10.1523/JNEUROSCI.2228-11.2013

The ability to infer deceptive intents from nonverbal behavior is critical for social interactions. By combining single-pulse and repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) in healthy humans, we provide both correlational and causative eviden...

And yet they act together: Interpersonal perception modulates visuo-motor interference and mutual adjustments during a joint-grasping task (2012)
Journal Article
Sacheli, L. M., Candidi, M., Pavone, E. F., Tidoni, E., & Aglioti, S. M. (2012). And yet they act together: Interpersonal perception modulates visuo-motor interference and mutual adjustments during a joint-grasping task. PLoS ONE, 7(11), e50223. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0050223

Prediction of “when” a partner will act and “what” he is going to do is crucial in joint-action contexts. However, studies on face-to-face interactions in which two people have to mutually adjust their movements in time and space are lacking. Moreove...

Simulating the future of actions in the human corticospinal system (2010)
Journal Article
Urgesi, C., Maieron, M., Avenanti, A., Tidoni, E., Fabbro, F., & Aglioti, S. M. (2010). Simulating the future of actions in the human corticospinal system. Cerebral Cortex, 20(11), 2511-2521. https://doi.org/10.1093/cercor/bhp292

Perception of the final position of a moving object or creature is distorted forward along its actual or implied motion path, thus enabling anticipation of its forthcoming position. In a previous research, we demonstrated that viewing static snapshot... Read More about Simulating the future of actions in the human corticospinal system.
