During phantom limb movements, motor signals emerge from the tibial nerve of amputees🦿, revealing joint- and direction-specific neural activity 🧠 A SNN-based decoder could capture these patterns, outperforming conventional methods. Paper by Cecilia Rossi:

The brain’s map of the body is surprisingly stable — even after a limb is lost
Study challenges the textbook idea that the brain region that processes body sensations reorganizes itself after limb amputation.
