Our hands have an incredible ability to sense and assess the stiffness of objects, but how does this perception work in our brains? 

In this video, we delve into the world of touch and explore the latest research from an international team of BBSRC-funded scientists led by University College London. Using #virtualreality experiments, they have discovered the specific area of the brain where stiffness perception is formed, shedding light on this fascinating aspect of #humanperception. 

Join us to learn more about the science of touch and the amazing abilities of our hands.
