Sense of agency - How does it feel to move my body?

Sense of agency - How does it feel to move my body?
Andrea Serino, Professor, Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne

When we move voluntarily, we have a feeling of control over our actions and their consequences on the external world. This is called the Sense of Agency. In this seminar, we will explore the most used methods to study the Sense of Agency and current knowledge about its neural correlates. We also will discuss novel questions, approaches and results related to the Sense of Agency for Brain Machine Interfaces, that is technologies allowing novel ways of interaction between the body and the brain.
