Mapping how local perturbations influence systems-level brain dynamics [PDF]
The human brain exhibits a relatively stable spatiotemporal organization that supports brain function and can be manipulated via local brain stimulation. Such perturbations to local cortical dynamics are globally integrated by distinct neural systems.

Standardization of electroencephalography for multi-site, multi-platform and multi-investigator studies: Insights from the canadian biomarker integration network in depression [PDF]
Subsequent to global initiatives in mapping the human brain and investigations of neurobiological markers for brain disorders, the number of multi-site studies involving the collection and sharing of large volumes of brain data, including ...

We explore 5HT2A receptor activation, a key target for psychedelic drugs, using molecular dynamics simulations. Without Gqα, the active receptor collapses to an inactive conformation, underscoring the G‐protein's role. Discovery of an intermediate “partially‐open” state and the higher affinity of ligands to the orthosteric binding site provides ...

Phantom Sensations: What's a Brain to Do? A Critical Review of the Re-mapping Hypothesis [PDF]
I will review the most widely held account of phantom sensations; the “re-mapping hypothesis.” According to the re-mapping hypothesis, amputation is followed by significant neural reorganization that, over time, restores the alignment between the brain’s

Robotic and animal mapping systems share many challenges and characteristics: they must function in a wide variety of environmental conditions, enable the robot or animal to navigate effectively to find food or shelter, and be computationally tractable ...

Characteristics of the Kelch domain containing (KLHDC) subfamily and relationships with diseases
The Kelch protein superfamily includes 63 members, with the KLHDC subfamily having 10 proteins. While their functions are not fully understood, recent advances in KLHDC2's structure and role in protein degradation have highlighted its potential for drug development, especially in PROTAC therapies.

Deep Cross-Modality and Resolution Graph Integration for Universal Brain Connectivity Mapping and Augmentation [PDF]
The connectional brain template (CBT) captures the shared traits across all individuals of a given population of brain connectomes, thereby acting as a fingerprint. Estimating a CBT from a population where brain graphs are derived from diverse neuroimaging modalities (e.g., functional and structural) and at different resolutions (i.e., number of nodes)

Immunoregulatory mechanisms of the arachidonic acid pathway in cancer
The central role of the arachidonic acid (AA) pathway in anticancer immunity. Enzymes and metabolites of the AA pathway can play both immunosuppressive and immunostimulatory roles in the tumor microenvironment. Therefore, their tailored targeting could be beneficial as a standalone therapy or in combination with current cancer immunotherapy.
