This paper identifies physiological arousal as a major source of individual differences in functional brain networks, showing strong correlations between arousal and network properties across multiple sessions and samples.

The paper investigates why large-scale neuroimaging tasks yield weak brain-mental health associations, finding a signal evocation bottleneck in common fMRI tasks.

The paper maps dopamine physiology using hemodynamic latency from fMRI, showing distinct patterns in the nucleus accumbens and linking them to addictive behaviors and substance use disorders.

The paper identifies a systematic inflation of functional connectivity in fMRI scans over time and proposes a solution to mitigate this artifact.

This study identifies widespread brain-body co-fluctuations across multiple physiological systems and shows they are linked to autonomic nervous system activity.

This paper describes an MRI protocol for evaluating the brain anatomy and function of California sea lions, focusing on developmental effects of domoic acid exposure.

This study examines resting-state functional connectivity, cortical GABA, and neuroactive steroids in peripartum depressed women compared to healthy controls, finding altered connectivity and correlations with GABA levels and allopregnanolone.
