About
Natalija Katic is a neuroscientist whose research explores the intricate interplay between sensory feedback and motor control, with a particular focus on proprioception and cutaneous afferent signaling. Her work investigates how disrupting proprioceptive information—the body’s sense of position and movement—alters neural processing during electrical stimulation of skin-based sensory pathways. In her most-cited paper, "Disruption of Proprioceptive Information During Electrical Stimulation of the Cutaneous Afferents" (2021), Katic demonstrates how artificial stimulation of cutaneous afferents can interfere with natural proprioceptive cues, shedding light on mechanisms underlying sensorimotor integration. Though early in her career, with this work accruing 2 citations, her findings hold significant implications for neurorehabilitation and the design of neural prosthetics, where precise sensory feedback is critical. Katic’s research bridges fundamental neuroscience and applied biomedical engineering, offering insights into how the brain reconciles conflicting sensory signals. Her contributions are particularly relevant for understanding conditions like phantom limb pain or sensory deficits, and her work is paving the way for more adaptive and intuitive human-machine interfaces.
