Concept Cells and the Neural Bases of Human Memory

open access: yesActa Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Single‐neuron recordings from the medial temporal lobe of patients undergoing epilepsy surgery have revealed “concept cells” that respond selectively and invariantly to meaningful stimuli such as specific people, places, or objects. These responses offer a unique window into how individual neurons encode high‐level, multimodal representations ...

Speech Neurophysiology in Realistic Contexts: Big Hype or Big Leap?

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 63, Issue 12, June 2026.
Speech neurophysiology is moving from controlled listening tasks to dynamic, socially rich interactions, challenging traditional methods. This shift promises deeper insights into how the brain processes and represents speech in real‐world contexts, while introducing new analytical complexities.

Applying Functional Near Infrared (fNIR) Spectroscopy to Enhance MIS Research

open access: yesAIS Transactions on Human-Computer Interaction, 2014
This review paper introduces the emerging technology of optical brain imaging, also known as functional near infrared (fNIR) spectroscopy, and discusses its potential role in enhancing theory and methodology used in MIS research. We discuss basic fNIR principles including the technique’s safe and portable nature, which allows ambulatory brain activity ...

The Effects of Different Attentional Focus During Walking on Prefrontal Cortical Activation in Young Healthy Adults

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 63, Issue 11, June 2026.
Dual‐task walking did not significantly modulate dorsolateral prefrontal cortex activation, although a left‐lateralized pattern was observed. Gait performance (speed, cadence and stride length) remained comparable between single‐task and external attention conditions, while divided attention impaired gait parameters. Notably, internal attention reduces

Approaches based on nonlinear Kalman filtering to deal with physiological noise in the estimation of the hemodynamic response from functional near-infrared spectroscopy data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
This thesis proposes a novel algorithm based on nonlinear Kalman filtering to reduce physiological noise that contaminates functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) signals and improve the estimation of the hemodynamic response.

Evidence of Physiological Comodulation During Human–Animal Interaction: A Systematic Review

open access: yesAnnals of the New York Academy of Sciences, Volume 1560, Issue 1, June 2026.
From thirty‐seven studies on physiological comodulation in human–animal interaction, dogs and horses emerged as the most studied species, primarily in therapeutic and companionship settings. Cardiac and hormonal signals dominated the analyses, with correlation methods prevailing.

Frequency domain functional near infrared spectroscopy and diffuse tomography improves quantitative accuracy

open access: yes, 2021
Frequency domain functional near infrared spectroscopy and tomography (FD-fNIRS-DOT) utilizes information about attenuation and pathlength of measurements. The improved quantitative accuracy of FD-fNIRS-DOT is shown as applied in brain imaging.
