โ๐ง Your brain has a hidden "body feelings" hub, and scientists just mapped it! A team incl. Stanford's Josef Parvizi stimulated the deep-buried insula in 87 people who already had medical brain electrodes, over 10+ years. The rear sparked pain, heat & tingling in arms or legs; the middle triggered nausea & chest pressure. ๐ฌ Published in Nature Oct 21! #Science #Neuroscience #Brain
