Major depressive disorder recurrence and medication status shape brain network topology

This study uses topological data analysis to show that MDD alters brain network topology, with changes varying by illness course and medication status.

Dog brain atlas generated via spatially constrained spectral clustering

The paper generates a multi-scale functional dog brain atlas using spatially constrained spectral clustering and validates its replicability and coherence across scales.

The functional connectivity of the human claustrum according to the Human Connectome Project database

This study identifies the functional connectivity of the human claustrum using HCP data, finding connections to multiple brain regions and supporting its role in neural networks.

Development of the Functional Connectome Topology in Adolescence: evidence from Topological Data Analysis

This study uses Topological Data Analysis to examine how functional brain connectivity changes during adolescence, finding nonlinear developmental trajectories influenced by puberty.

The Time Varying Networks of the Interoceptive Attention and Rest

The paper examines dynamic functional connectivity patterns in meditators during an interoceptive attention task and rest periods, finding task-related changes in network organization.

Localizing Brain Function Based on Full Multivariate Activity Patterns: The Case of Visual Perception and Emotion Decoding

The paper develops a high-dimensional multivariate classification pipeline to localize brain functions during visual and socio-affective tasks using fMRI data.

Development of the Brain Functional Connectome Follows Puberty-Dependent Nonlinear Trajectories

This study shows that brain functional connectome development follows nonlinear trajectories dependent on puberty rather than chronological age, with increased connectivity and efficiency after pubertal onset.

The Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex Presents Structural Variations Associated with Empathic Capacity in Psychotherapists

This study finds that psychotherapists have greater cortical thickness in the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, which correlates with their empathic concern.

GREATER EMPATHIC ABILITIES AND THEIR CORRELATION WITH RESTING STATE BRAIN CONNECTIVITY IN PSYCHOTHERAPISTS COMPARED TO NON-PSYCHOTHERAPISTS

This study compares empathic abilities and brain connectivity between psychotherapists and non-psychotherapists, finding greater cognitive regulation in psychotherapists.

Functional connectivity of music-induced analgesia in fibromyalgia

This study investigates the neural correlates of music-induced analgesia in fibromyalgia patients using resting-state fMRI and finds lateralized changes in functional connectivity associated with pain reduction.

Neural Correlates Of The Natural Observation Of An Emotionally Loaded Video

The paper uses fMRI and ICA to analyze brain networks during natural viewing of an emotionally loaded video, identifying sensorimotor system interactions with emotional networks.

Hemispheric lateralization of Heschl’s gyrus and amygdala subdivisions are involved in differentiating happy and sad acoustic emotion

The paper investigates how functional activation in Heschl’s gyrus and amygdala subdivisions differentiates between happy and sad acoustic stimuli, finding hemispheric lateralization patterns specific to sad emotions.
