Transcranial Static Magnetic Stimulation Dissociates the Causal Roles of the Parietal Cortex in Spatial and Temporal Processing

This study uses tSMS to investigate the causal role of the right IPL and SMA in temporal and spatial processing, finding no effect on duration discrimination but improved orientation discrimination over IPL.

Charting Cortical-Layer Specific Area Boundaries Using Gibbs Ringing Attenuated T1w/T2w-FLAIR Myelin MRI

This paper introduces a method to map cortical-layer specific area boundaries in primates using myelin MRI, revealing a 182 area/subarea partition in macaques with high homology to human myelin maps.

Linking neuron-axon-synapse architecture to white matter vasculature using high-resolution multimodal MRI in primate brain

This study links neuron-axon-synapse architecture to white matter vasculature in primates using multimodal MRI and other techniques, finding correlations between vascular patterns and axonal features.

Mapping vascular network architecture in primate brain using ferumoxytol-weighted laminar MRI

This study maps vascular networks in primate brains using ferumoxytol-weighted MRI, revealing regional variations in vascular volume and its relationship with neuronal and receptor densities.

Efficacy of neurofeedback training for improving attentional performance in healthy adults: A systematic review and meta-analysis

This meta-analysis evaluates neurofeedback training's impact on attention in healthy adults, finding a significant overall effect but no difference from sham training.

Immediate effect of quadri-pulse stimulation on human brain microstructures

This study examines if quadri-pulse stimulation (QPS) induces immediate microstructural changes in the human brain, finding no significant changes in FA or MD values.

Quadripulse Stimulation: A Replication Study with A Newly Developed Stimulator

This study replicates findings from previous research using a new QPS stimulator, showing similar after-effects in motor evoked potentials as the previously used Magstim stimulator.

Microstructural Properties of Human Brain Revealed by Fractional Anisotropy can Predict the After-effect of Intermittent Theta Burst Stimulation

The paper shows that fractional anisotropy (FA) values from white and grey matter predict the variability in iTBS-induced motor evoked potential (MEP) amplitude changes in the primary motor cortex.
