This study uses MRI to show that nigrosomes in Parkinson's patients show specific magnetic properties changes, indicating vulnerability without direct neuronal loss.

FOCUS, a 100 µm atlas of 180 manually segmented subcortical grey and white matter regions and 77 hand-built tracts, registered to MNI 2009b space for warping to individual brains.

The paper quantifies how MRI parameters and tissue volume change in human brains during fixation and PBS immersion, providing a resource for linking in vivo MRI to postmortem data.

The paper quantifies iron and neuromelanin in dopaminergic neurons across chimpanzee lifespan, finding stable iron-to-neuromelanin ratios and no evidence of saturation or increased toxicity with age.

This paper creates a 3D histological atlas of nigrosomes in the substantia nigra aligned to MNI152 space, enabling MRI analysis of these structures in Parkinson's disease.

The paper examines how structural brain features relate to functional activity across individuals and brain regions, finding distinct mechanisms for intra- and inter-individual variability in alpha power.

This study evaluates how protocol and hardware differences affect pooling quantitative MRI data across sites in healthy aging studies, finding both benefits and drawbacks for analysis outcomes.

This study uses high-resolution fMRI to map resting-state functional connectivity in human ocular dominance columns, revealing depth- and subfield-specific patterns linked to perceptual biases.

This study compares motor cortex microstructure in humans and chimpanzees using qMRI, finding conserved high myelin and iron content in the hand-knob but enhanced rightward lateralization in humans.

This paper demonstrates non-exponential transverse relaxation decay in human subcortical grey matter using MRI, enabling characterization of magnetic inclusions with potential applications in Parkinson's disease.

This study maps chimpanzee brain development using MRI and histology, finding differences in myelination and iron accumulation compared to humans.

The paper analyzes human white matter fibers to compare thickness and myelination between long and short fibers, finding shorter fibers are thinner and less myelinated but have similar g-ratio.

The paper introduces a method to map short association fibre connectivity in the human brain using diffusion MRI, showing SAF preserve cortical functional topology and enabling non-invasive insights into cortico-cortical integration.

This study investigates the neuroinfectiology of Bcbva in wild chimpanzees, finding it causes meningitis and breaches the blood-brain barrier more effectively than B. anthracis.

This study uses flicker light stimulation and fMRI to show that it increases thalamocortical connectivity between LGN, visual areas, and higher-order thalamic nuclei, correlating with visual hallucination intensity.

The paper develops and validates a calibration-based correction model for MTsat maps in postmortem 7T MRI data of chimpanzee brains to address B1+ inhomogeneities.

This paper introduces a method to assess hypoperfusion in stroke using spatial independent component analysis of resting-state fMRI data, identifying hypoperfusion components that correlate with delayed perfusion and reperfusion.

The paper links MRI relaxation rate in substantia nigra to iron concentration in dopaminergic neurons, enabling early Parkinson's disease detection.

The paper investigates microstructural changes in the visual cortex during childhood and finds that apparent thinning is due to increased myelination rather than pruning.

This study evaluates if higher multiband (MB) acceleration improves BOLD signal detection in cognitive tasks, finding MB4 provides better group-level results than lower acceleration.

This paper develops a method combining deep learning and active contours for automated segmentation of neural cell bodies from light-sheet microscopy data.
