Magnet Chicken has become my day off tradition these days.

A point that I think is frequently missed in the discussion surrounding the new homunculus paper (https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-023-05964-2) is that even Penfield himself said not to take his homunculus literally! And in fact we've known for quite some time that M1 in primates and rodents doesn't map solely to single parts of the body, but instead maps to actions too. See this great review from 2016 - https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tics.2015.10.008

A classic, updated: Penfield's homunculus revisited. The authors propose an interrupted homunculus, as an integrate–isolate model of action and motor control.
"A somato-cognitive action network alternates with effector regions in motor cortex"
Gordon et al. 2023
https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-023-05964-2Let's hope it passes the test of time, because Penfield used electrodes, whereas this new work is with #fMRI.
