Summary

It is found that LIPv and MIP receive disynaptic inputs from the dorsal column nuclei as directly as these somatosensory areas, via a parallel channel, and these findings have important implications for the understanding of the influence of proprioceptive information on movement control operations of the PPC and the formation of body representations.
