This study uses fMRI and dynamic causal modelling to show the habenula modulates midbrain and cortical pathways with both inhibitory and excitatory effects during negative reward prediction error tasks.

This study examines the relationship between neural activation during reappraisal tasks and individual differences in emotion regulation, finding no shared overlap across three measures and highlighting methodological challenges in fMRI research.

The paper investigates neural circuitry differences during cognitive restructuring in depressive and anxiety disorders using fMRI, finding distinct activation and connectivity patterns associated with symptom severity.

The paper identifies convergent and selective functional zones in the insula using fMRI data, revealing a hierarchical convergence architecture across pain, appetitive, aversive, and cognitive control domains.

The paper investigates altered basal forebrain connectivity in depressive and anxiety disorders using resting-state fMRI and finds increased inhibitory connectivity from nucleus basalis of Meynert to the default mode network in clinical participants.

The paper examines white matter volume deviations in psychiatric disorders using normative modeling, finding heterogeneous patterns with some aggregation in autism and schizophrenia.

This study uses normative modeling to analyze cortical thickness deviations in MDD patients and healthy controls, finding large overlaps and significant heterogeneity in extreme deviations across individuals.

This study uses a new method to examine how local brain connectivity differs in adolescents and young adults with depression compared to healthy controls.

The paper evaluates factors affecting brain-age prediction models using structural neuroimaging data from 35,683 individuals, finding optimal model performance with no site harmonization, age-binning, and a sample size of over 1,600.

This study identifies altered effective connectivity in the default mode network during reflected self-appraisal in social anxiety disorder using fMRI and dynamic causal modeling.

This study uses fMRI to compare brain activity during safety learning via conditioned inhibition and standard safety signals, finding distinct cortico-striatal circuits for each.

This study identifies a thalamo-centric neural signature in the mediodorsal thalamus involved in cognitive restructuring of negative self-beliefs using fMRI and Dynamic Causal Modelling.

This study investigates the role of subcortical structures in modulating the default mode network in humans using fMRI.

The paper analyzes cortical thickness trajectories in 17,075 individuals to show peak thickness in childhood, steep decline in early adulthood, and slower decline later, with notable exceptions and significant inter-individual variability.

The paper analyzes sex differences in brain structure variability across the lifespan using a large dataset, finding greater male variability in subcortical volumes, cortical surface area, and thickness in most regions.

This paper examines brain aging in major depressive disorder (MDD) using a large dataset, finding that MDD patients show increased brain age differences compared to controls.

The paper identifies neurovegetative symptom subtypes in young people with MDD and finds structural brain correlates in the anterior insula.
