Focused Ultrasound Neuromodulation: Exploring a Novel Treatment for Severe Opioid Use Disorder

BACKGROUND: Opioid use disorder remains a critical health care challenge because current therapeutic strategies have limitations that result in high recurrence and deaths. We evaluated the safety and feasibility of focused ultrasound (FUS) neuromodulation ...

Brain Oscillatory Modes as a Proxy of Stroke Recovery

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Olaf Blanke, Silvestro Micera, Friedhelm Christoph Hummel, Takuya Morishita, Elena Beanato, Sylvain Jean-François Harquel, Lisa Aïcha Mireille Julie Fleury, Nathalie Heidi Meyer, Maximilian Jonas Wessel

Background Stroke is the leading cause of long-term disability, making the search for successful rehabilitation treatment one of the most important public health issues. A better understanding of the neural mechanisms underlying impairment and recovery is ...

Embodiment in episodic memory through premotor-hippocampal coupling

Olaf Blanke, Bruno Herbelin, Jevita Potheegadoo, Mariana Babo Rebelo, Nathalie Heidi Meyer, Baptiste Gauthier, Florian Lance

Episodic memory (EM) allows us to remember and relive past events and experiences and has been linked to cortical-hippocampal reinstatement of encoding activity. While EM is fundamental to establish a sense of self across time, this claim and its link to t ...

Sense of agency during encoding predicts subjective reliving

Olaf Blanke, Jevita Potheegadoo, Nathalie Heidi Meyer, Baptiste Gauthier, Florian Lance

Autonoetic consciousness (ANC), the ability to re-experience personal past events links episodic memory and self-consciousness by bridging awareness of oneself in a past event (i.e., during its encoding) with awareness of oneself in the present (i.e., duri ...

Bodily self-consciousness as a framework to link sensory information and self-related components of episodic memory: behavioral, neuroimaging, and clinical evidence

Nathalie Heidi Meyer

The recollection of sensory information and subjective experience related to a personal past event depends on our episodic memory (EM). At the neural level, EM retrieval is linked with the reinstatement of hippocampal activity thought to recollect the sens ...

Differential Impact of Brain Network Efficiency on Poststroke Motor and Attentional Deficits

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Friedhelm Christoph Hummel, Gabriel Girard, Takuya Morishita, Elena Beanato, Lisa Aïcha Mireille Julie Fleury, Nathalie Heidi Meyer, Maximilian Jonas Wessel, Philip Egger, Philipp Johannes Koch

Background:Most studies on stroke have been designed to examine one deficit in isolation; yet, survivors often have multiple deficits in different domains. While the mechanisms underlying multiple-domain deficits remain poorly understood, network-theoretic ...

Toward individualized medicine in stroke-The TiMeS project: Protocol of longitudinal, multi-modal, multi-domain study in stroke

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Olaf Blanke, Silvestro Micera, Friedhelm Christoph Hummel, Gabriel Girard, Takuya Morishita, Elena Beanato, Estelle Emeline Raffin, Sylvain Jean-François Harquel

Despite recent improvements, complete motor recovery occurs in < 15% of stroke patients. To improve the therapeutic outcomes, there is a strong need to tailor treatments to each individual patient. However, there is a lack of knowledge concerning the preci ...

White matter hyperintensities at critical crossroads for executive function and verbal abilities in small vessel disease

Nathalie Heidi Meyer

The presence of white matter lesions in patients with cerebral small vessel disease (SVD) is among the main causes of cognitive decline. We investigated the relation between white matter hyperintensity (WMH) locations and executive and language abilities i ...

Locomotion in virtual environments predicts cardiovascular responsiveness to subsequent stressful challenges

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Nathalie Heidi Meyer, João Pedro de Matos Rodrigues, Stephan Streuber, Erik Hans Jakob Studer

Individuals differ in their physiological responsiveness to stressful challenges, and stress potentiates the development of many diseases. Heart rate variability (HRV), a measure of cardiac vagal break, is emerging as a strong index of physiological stress ...
