The Altered Somatic Brain Network in State Anxiety

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry, 2019
Highly anxious individuals often show excessive emotional arousal, somatic arousal, and characteristics of mental illness. Previous researches have extensively investigated the emotional and cognitive biases of individuals with high anxiety, but ...

The Body Model Theory of Somatosensory Cortex [PDF]

open access: yesNeuron, 2017
I outline a microcircuit theory of somatosensory cortex as a body model serving both for body representation and "body simulation." A modular model of innervated and non-innervated body parts resides in somatosensory cortical layer 4. This body model is continuously updated and compares to an avatar (an animatable puppet) rather than a mere sensory map.

Clinical and anatomical characteristics of basal temporal seizures: A systematic review

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract This review aimed to characterize the clinical semiology and anatomical correlates of seizures originating in the basal temporal region, an underrecognized epilepsy subtype, and to identify features that distinguish it from other forms of temporal lobe epilepsies (TLE).

Anticipation across modalities in children and adults: Relating anticipatory alpha rhythm lateralization, reaction time, and executive function

open access: yesDevelopmental Science, Volume 26, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023
Participants analyzed included 40 adults aged 18–20 and 40 children aged 6–8, who were cued with a sound that directed their attention to the location of an upcoming stimulus. The stimulus presented to the right or left of the participant in either the tactile, auditory or visual modalities and participants responded to the stimulus by pressing a foot ...

Active percolation analysis of pyramidal neurons of somatosensory cortex: A comparison of wildtype and p21H-ras^Val12 transgenic mice [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2005
This article describes the investigation of morphological variations among two set of neuronal cells, namely a control group of wild type rat cells and a group of cells of a trangenic line. Special attention is given to sigular points in the neuronal structure, namely the branching points and extremities of the dendritic processes. The characterization

Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging: a study of malnourished rats [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2013
Malnutrition is a main public health problem in developing countries. Incidence is increasing and the mortality rate is still high. Malnutrition can leads mayor problems that can be irreversible if it is present before brain development is completed. We used BOLD (blood oxygen level-dependent effect) Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging to investigate

Creativity and its link to epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Creative thinking represents one of our highest‐order cognitive processes, involving multiple cortical structures and an intricate interplay between several cortical and subcortical networks. It results in novel ideas that translate to useful products or concepts. The evolutionary purpose of creativity is therefore apparent, as it advances our

Remodelling of myelinated axons and oligodendrocyte differentiation is stimulated by environmental enrichment in the young adult brain

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 56, Issue 12, Page 6099-6114, December 2022., 2022
Using environmental enrichment to physiologically induce neuroplasticity in the young adult mouse, we find dynamic structural remodelling of axons and their pre‐existing myelin sheaths. Additionally, we find that oligodendrocytes respond primarily with an increase in differentiation and regionally specific decreases in progenitor density. These results
