Subcortical correlates of consciousness with human single neuron recordings

Olaf Blanke, Fosco Bernasconi, Nathan Quentin Faivre, Michael Eric Anthony Pereira

Subcortical brain structures such as the basal ganglia or the thalamus are involved in regulating motor and cognitive behavior. However, their contribution to perceptual consciousness is still unclear, due to the inherent difficulties of recording subcorti ...

CDKL5 sculpts functional callosal connectivity to promote cognitive flexibility

Valerio Zerbi

Functional and structural connectivity alterations in short- and long-range projections have been reported across neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD). Interhemispheric callosal projection neurons (CPN) represent one of the major long-range projections in th ...

Revisiting brain rewiring and plasticity in children born without corpus callosum

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Maria Giulia Preti, Vanessa Siffredi, Silvia Obertino

The corpus callosum is the largest white matter pathway connecting homologous structures of the two cerebral hemispheres. Remarkably, children and adults with developmental absence of the corpus callosum (callosal dysgenesis, CD) show typical interhemisphe ...

A brief exposure to rightward prismatic adaptation changes resting-state network characteristics of the ventral attentional system

Patric Hagmann, Stephanie Clarke

A brief session of rightward prismatic adaptation (R-PA) has been shown to alleviate neglect symptoms in patients with right hemispheric damage, very likely by switching hemispheric dominance of the ventral attentional network (VAN) from the right to the l ...

A Text Mining Pipeline Using Active and Deep Learning Aimed at Curating Information in Computational Neuroscience

Christian O'Reilly, Elisabetta Iavarone

The curation of neuroscience entities is crucial to ongoing efforts in neuroinformatics and computational neuroscience, such as those being deployed in the context of continuing large-scale brain modelling projects. However, manually sifting through thousa ...

Exploring the relative efficacy of motion artefact correction techniques for EEG data acquired during simultaneous fMRI

João Pedro Forjaco Jorge

Simultaneous EEG-fMRI allows multiparametric characterisation of brain function, in principle enabling a more complete understanding of brain responses; unfortunately the hostile MRI environment severely reduces EEG data quality. Simply eliminating data se ...

Insula mediates heartbeat related effects on visual consciousness

Olaf Blanke, Bruno Herbelin, Jonathan Dönz, Nathan Quentin Faivre, Roy Salomon, Roberta Ronchi, Javier Bello Ruiz

Interoceptive signals, such as the heartbeat, are processed in a network of brain regions including the insular cortex. Recent studies have shown that such signals modulate perceptual and cognitive processing, and that they impact visual awareness. For exa ...

Cortico-reticulo-spinal circuits mediate functional recovery after spinal cord contusion

Léonie Asboth

After a spinal cord injury (SCI), only half of affected individuals regain voluntary control of leg movements below the level of the lesion. Anatomical, electrophysiological and imaging data revealed that even the most severe forms of SCI usually spare a s ...

Progress towards in vivo brain (13)C-MRS in mice: Metabolic flux analysis in small tissue volumes

Rolf Gruetter, Bernard Lanz, Marta Lai

The combination of dynamic (13)C MRS data under infusion of (13)C-labeled substrates and compartmental models of cerebral metabolism enabled in vivo measurement of metabolic fluxes with a quantitative and distinct determination of cellular-specific activit ...

Visual consciousness and bodily self-consciousness

Olaf Blanke, Nathan Quentin Faivre, Roy Salomon

Purpose of review: In recent years, consciousness has become a central topic in cognitive neuroscience. This review focuses on the relation between bodily self-consciousness - the feeling of being a subject in a body - and visual consciousness - the subjec ...
