This study uses neural field models to assess thalamocortical function in disorders of consciousness, finding reduced corticothalamic integrity in UWS compared to MCS.

This study shows that cognitive co-activation dominates fMRI synchrony in the awake brain but is replaced by anatomical and molecular constraints during consciousness perturbations.

This study uses computational models to simulate psychedelic treatments for disorders of consciousness, finding they shift brains closer to criticality, with varying effects based on patient state.

The paper uses whole-brain models to simulate the effects of serotonergic psychedelics on disorders of consciousness, showing they can shift brain dynamics toward conscious states.

This study uses connectome harmonic decomposition to show that ketamine-induced unresponsiveness increases localised harmonics, similar to psychedelic states, unlike traditional sedation which increases global harmonics.

This study examines the effects of regular cannabis use on brain resting-state functional connectivity in adolescents and adults, finding localized increases in the executive control network in users but no significant age-group interactions.

The paper maps brain states of reduced consciousness into a low-dimensional space using whole-brain modeling and deep learning, revealing an orderly trajectory from wakefulness to brain injury.

This study maps how pharmacological drugs alter brain function by linking neurotransmitter receptor distribution with drug-induced changes in functional MRI connectivity.
