The auditory representation of speech sounds in human motor cortex
eLife, 2016 In humans, listening to speech evokes neural responses in the motor cortex. This has been controversially interpreted as evidence that speech sounds are processed as articulatory gestures.

Aging and the Spectral Properties of Brain Hemodynamics
Advanced Science, EarlyView.As the brain ages, its metabolic demands decline—but not uniformly. Here, spectral slope flattening of resting‐state fMRI signals is proposed as a potential biomarker of pathologic brain aging. A subset of older adults diverges from youthful spectral and metabolic patterns, with changes linked to frontal white matter pathology and regional loss of ...

Explicit and Implicit Processes in Human Aversive Conditioning [PDF]
, 2006 The ability to adapt to a changing environment is central to an organism’s success. The process of associating two stimuli (as in associative conditioning) requires very little in the way of neural machinery.

Long Term High‐Salt Diet Induces Cognitive Impairments via Down‐Regulating SHANK1
Advanced Science, EarlyView.The study identifies a novel mechanistic link between long‐term HS diet and cognitive impairment, wherein PKA/CREB axis inactivation leads to SHANK1 reduction, synaptic damage, and cognitive deficits. Abstract High‐salt (HS) diet is an established risk factor for cognitive impairment, but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear.

Functional near infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) to assess cognitive function in infants in rural Africa [PDF]
, 2011 Cortical mapping of cognitive function during infancy is poorly understood in low-income countries due to the lack of transportable neuroimaging methods. We have successfully piloted functional near infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) as a neuroimaging tool in

Contrast Tuning in Auditory Cortex [PDF]
Science, 2003 The acoustic features useful for converting auditory information into perceived objects are poorly understood. Although auditory cortex neurons have been described as being narrowly tuned and preferentially responsive to narrowband signals, naturally occurring sounds are generally wideband with unique spectral energy profiles.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study shows that enhanced brain‐to‐heart coupling is a precursor of anxiety reduction following a virtual reality‐based non‐pharmacological intervention. Driven by midline beta rhythms, this effect suggests the involvement of central‐autonomic interactions.

Change detection in children with autism: an auditory event-related fMRI study [PDF]
, 2006 Autism involves impairments in communication and social interaction, as well as high levels of repetitive, stereotypic and ritualistic behaviours, and extreme resistance to change. This latter dimension, whilst required for a diagnosis, has received less

Cerebral Cortex, 2015 An ever-increasing number of studies are pointing to the importance of network properties of the brain for understanding behavior such as conscious perception. However, with regards to the influence of prestimulus brain states on perception, this network
