Pathological perturbations of the brain are rarely confined to a single locus; instead, they
often spread via axonal pathways to influence other regions. Patterns of such disease …

Healthy aging (HA) is associated with certain declines in cognitive functions, even in
individuals that are free of any process of degenerative illness. Functional magnetic …

Abstract Dynamic Causal Modelling (DCM) is the predominant method for inferring effective
connectivity from neuroimaging data. In the 15 years since its introduction, the neural …

The human posterior cingulate, retrosplenial, and medial parietal cortex are involved in
memory and navigation. The functional anatomy underlying these cognitive functions was …

Psychedelics exert unique effects on human consciousness. The thalamic filter model
suggests that core effects of psychedelics may result from gating deficits, based on a …

This paper outlines a hierarchical Bayesian framework for interoception,
homeostatic/allostatic control, and meta-cognition that connects fatigue and depression to …

The human orbitofrontal cortex, ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC), and anterior
cingulate cortex are involved in reward processing and thereby in emotion but are also …

The alterations of functional connectivity brain networks in major depressive disorder (MDD)
have been subject of a large number of studies. Using different methodologies and focusing …

This chapter focuses on the imaging (or distributed) method for implementing EEG/MEG
source reconstruction in SPM. This approach results in a spatial projection of sensor data …

Efforts to identify meaningful functional imaging-based biomarkers are limited by the ability
to reliably characterize inter-individual differences in human brain function. Although a …
