CLIMATE BRAIN - Questionnaires, Tasks and the Neuroimaging Dataset

The paper introduces the CLIMATE BRAIN dataset, a multimodal resource containing questionnaire, behavioral, and neuroimaging data on climate change from 160 individuals.

Understanding functional brain reorganisation for naturalistic piano playing in novice pianists

This study uses fMRI to track brain reorganisation in novice pianists over six months of training, showing reduced activation in higher-order cognitive regions as proficiency increases.

Learning about threat from friends and strangers is equally effective: an fMRI study on observational fear conditioning

This study uses fMRI to show that observational fear learning from friends and strangers produces similar brain activity patterns, suggesting familiarity does not enhance threat learning.

Emotion schema effects on associative memory differ across emotion categories at the behavioural, physiological and neural level

The paper investigates how emotion schemas affect associative memory across different emotion categories, showing differences in behavioral, physiological, and neural responses between disgust and fear.

Distinct medial-temporal lobe mechanisms of encoding and amygdala-mediated memory reinstatement for disgust and fear

The paper investigates how disgust and fear memories are encoded and reinstated, finding distinct neural mechanisms and amygdala involvement in memory reinstatement for disgust.

Lenticular nucleus volume predicts performance in real-time strategy game - cross-sectional and training approach using voxel-based morphometry

The paper investigates how lenticular nucleus volume predicts skill acquisition in real-time strategy games using cross-sectional and training studies with voxel-based morphometry.

Universal brain signature of emerging reading in two contrasting languages

This study identifies a universal brain signature of emerging reading in 7-year-olds across two languages, showing limited variation with differences linked to orthographic transparency.

Wasting food is disgusting: Evidence from behavioral and neuroimaging study of moral judgment of food-wasting behavior

The paper investigates moral judgments of food-wasting behavior using behavioral and neuroimaging data, finding that food-wasting is seen as morally wrong and linked to disgust.

EEG signal diversity during propofol sedation: an increase in sedated but responsive, a decrease in sedated and unresponsive subjects

The paper investigates EEG signal diversity during propofol sedation, finding increased diversity in responsive subjects and decreased diversity in unresponsive subjects, suggesting EEG diversity as an indirect index of consciousness.

Can pornography be addictive? An fMRI study of men seeking treatment for problematic pornography use.

This study uses fMRI to examine neural responses to erotic and monetary cues in men with and without problematic pornography use, finding increased ventral striatum activation in those with PPU.
