Microglia are important phagocytes of the central nervous system (CNS). They play an
important role in protecting the CNS by clearing necrotic tissue and apoptotic cells in many …

The heterogeneity of schizophrenia has defied efforts to derive reproducible and definitive
anatomical maps of structural brain changes associated with the disorder. We aimed to map …

Diffusion MRI tractography is the most widely used macroscale method for mapping
connectomes in vivo. However, tractography is prone to various errors and biases, and thus …

While the structural characteristics of a network are uniquely determined by its adjacency
matrix,–, in physical networks, such as the brain or the vascular system, the network's three …

Background: Hippocampal atrophy is a characteristic of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However,
alterations in structural connectivity (number of connecting fibers) between the hippocampus …

Emerging evidence suggests that the coupling relating the structural connectivity (SC) of the
brain to its functional connectivity (FC) exhibits remarkable changes during development …

Objective Individuals with subjective cognitive decline (SCD) or amnestic mild cognitive
impairment (aMCI) represent important targets for the early detection and intervention of …

Despite an expanding literature on brain alterations in patients with longstanding epilepsy,
few neuroimaging studies investigate patients with newly diagnosed focal epilepsy (NDfE) …

Fiber tractography is widely used to non-invasively map white-matter bundles in vivo using
diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (dMRI). As it is the case for all scientific …

Activation of the maternal immune system (MIA) during gestation is linked to
neuropsychiatric diseases like schizophrenia. While many studies address behavioural …
