The discovery of the default mode network (DMN) has revolutionized our understanding of
the workings of the human brain. Here, I review developments that led to the discovery of the …

Abstract Language behaviour is complex, but neuroscientific evidence disentangles it into
distinct components supported by dedicated brain areas or networks. In this Review, we …

Recent research has begun to identify the neural mechanisms underlying the beneficial
impact of mindfulness meditation training (MMT) on health and cognition. However, little is …

Attentional lapses occur commonly and are associated with mind wandering, where focus is
turned to thoughts unrelated to ongoing tasks and environmental demands, or mind …

Neural substrates of “mind wandering” have been widely reported, yet experiments have
varied in their contexts and their definitions of this psychological phenomenon, limiting …

Understanding neural circuits that support mood is a central goal of affective neuroscience,
and improved understanding of the anatomy could inform more targeted interventions in …

The prevalence of internalizing disorders, ie, anxiety and depressive disorders, spikes in
adolescence and has been increasing amongst adolescents despite the existence of …

Functional neuroimaging techniques have been widely used to probe the neural substrates
of facial emotion processing in healthy people. However, findings are largely inconsistent …

Advances in computational neuroimaging techniques have expanded the armamentarium of
imaging tools available for clinical applications in clinical neuroscience. Non-invasive, in …

Cognitive neuroscience has witnessed a surge of interest in investigating the neural
correlates of the mind when it drifts away from an ongoing task and the external …
