- ‘Targeted motor and sensory reinnervation' (TMSR) entails rerouting residual limb nerves towards intact muscles and skin to try to achieve prostheses that move and feel like real limbs. Using ultra-high field 7T fMRI, Serino et al. examine upper limb representations in M1 and S1 of amputees who have undergone TMSR.
