Functional differentiation within the monkey cortex as revealed by near-infrared spectroscopy [PDF]
The role of prefrontal cortex in working memory (WM) is well established. However, questions remain regarding the topography and “domain-specific differentiation” of different types of information processing in the cortex.

Using Functional Near Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS) to study dynamic stereoscopic depth perception [PDF]
The parietal cortex has been widely implicated in the processing of depth perception by many neuroimaging studies, yet functional near infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) has been an under-utilised tool to examine the relationship of oxy- ([HbO]) and de ...

Carbamoylated nail proteins as assessed by near-infrared analysis are associated with load of uremic toxins and mortality in hemodialysis patients [PDF]
Carbamoylation is an important risk factor for accelerated atherogenesis and mortality in patients undergoing hemodialysis (HD). We intended to explore whether carbamoylation as assessed by near-infrared (NIR) analysis of nail proteins is associated with

Improved physiological noise regression in fNIRS: a multimodal extension of the General Linear Model using temporally embedded Canonical Correlation Analysis [PDF]
For the robust estimation of evoked brain activity from functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS) signals, it is crucial to reduce nuisance signals from systemic physiology and motion.

Systematic investigation of changes in oxidized cerebral cytochrome c oxidase concentration during frontal lobe activation in healthy adults [PDF]
Using transcranial near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) to measure changes in the redox state of cerebral cytochrome c oxidase (Δ[oxCCO]) during functional activation in healthy adults is hampered by instrumentation and algorithm issues.

Measuring visual cortical oxygenation in diabetes using functional near-infrared spectroscopy [PDF]
Aims: Diabetes mellitus affects about 6% of the world’s population, and the chronic complications of the disease may result in macro- and micro-vascular changes.

Design and synthesis of aromatic molecules for probing electric-fields at the nanoscale [PDF]
We propose using halogenated organic dyes as nanoprobes for electric field and show their greatly enhanced Stark coefficients using density functional theory (DFT) calculations.

Emotional modulation of visual cortex activity: A functional nearinfrared spectroscopy study [PDF]
Functional neuroimaging and electroencephalography reveal emotional effects in early visual cortex. Here, we used fNIRS to examine haemodynamic responses evoked by neutral, positive and negative emotional pictures, matched for brightness, contrast, hue,

Brain oxygenation patterns during the execution of tool use demonstration, tool use pantomime, and body-part-as-object tool use [PDF]
© 2015 Elsevier B.V. Divergent findings exist whether left and right hemispheric pre- and postcentral cortices contribute to the production of tool use related hand movements. In order to clarify the neural substrates of tool use demonstrations with tool
