Background: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the pedunculopontine nucleus (PPN) has been investigated for the treatment of levodopa-refractory gait dysfunction in parkinsonian disorders, with equivocal results so far. Objectives: To summarize the clin... Read More about Pedunculopontine Nucleus Deep Brain Stimulation for Parkinsonian Disorders: A Case Series..

The developing bodily self: How posture constrains body representation in childhood (2020)
Journal Article
Gottwald, J., Keenaghan, S., Zampieri, E., Tosodduk, H., Bremner, A. J., & Cowie, D. (2021). The developing bodily self: How posture constrains body representation in childhood. Child Development, 92(1), 351-366. https://doi.org/10.1111/cdev.13425

Adults’ body representation is constrained by multisensory information and knowledge of the body such as its possible postures. This study (N = 180) tested for similar constraints in children. Using the rubber hand illusion with adults and 6- to 7-ye... Read More about The developing bodily self: How posture constrains body representation in childhood.

Mind your step: learning to walk in complex environments (2020)
Journal Article
Mowbray, R., & Cowie, D. (2020). Mind your step: learning to walk in complex environments. Experimental Brain Research, 238(6), 1455-1465. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00221-020-05821-y

In everyday contexts, children must respond to both self-related constraints (their own skills and abilities) and environmental constraints (external obstacles and goals). How do young children simultaneously accommodate these to support skilled and... Read More about Mind your step: learning to walk in complex environments.

My body until proven otherwise: Exploring the time course of the full body illusion (2020)
Journal Article
Keenaghan, S., Bowles, L., Crawfurd, G., Thurlbeck, S., Kentridge, R. W., & Cowie, D. (2020). My body until proven otherwise: Exploring the time course of the full body illusion. Consciousness and Cognition, 78, Article 102882. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.concog.2020.102882

Evidence from the Full Body Illusion (FBI) has shown that adults can embody full bodies which are not their own when they move synchronously with their own body or are viewed from a first-person perspective. However, there is currently no consensus r... Read More about My body until proven otherwise: Exploring the time course of the full body illusion.
