abstract = {Topographic maps are a fundamental feature of cortex
architecture in the mammalian brain. One common theory is
that the de-differentiation of topographic maps links to
impairments in everyday behavior due to less precise
functional map readouts. Here, we tested this theory by
characterizing de-differentiated topographic maps in primary
somatosensory cortex (SI) of younger and older adults by
means of ultra-high resolution functional magnetic resonance
imaging together with perceptual finger individuation and
hand dexterity. Older adults’ SI maps showed similar
amplitude, size, and levels of stimulus-related noise than
younger adults’ SI maps, but presented with less
representational similarity between distant fingers. Larger
population receptive field sizes in older adults’ maps did
not correlate with behavior, whereas reduced cortical
distances related to better hand dexterity. Our data uncover
the drawbacks of a simple de-differentiation model of
topographic map function, and motivate the introduction of a
feature-based model of cortical reorganization.},
