New Study Reveals Link Between Sense of Touch and Perception of Time

A recent study published in Nature Communications has revealed a fascinating link between the somatosensory cortex, responsible for processing sensory information from the skin, and our perception of the duration of tactile experiences. Led by Professor Mathew Diamond of the International School for Advanced Studies (SISSA) in Italy, the research sheds new light on the relationship between the sense of touch and our perception of time, providing new insights into the complex relationship between touch and temporal experiences.
