Transient resting-state salience-limbic co-activation patterns in functional neurological disorders

Thomas William Arthur Bolton, Serafeim Loukas

Background: Functional neurological disorders were historically regarded as the manifestation of a dynamic brain lesion which might be linked to trauma or stress, although this association has not yet been directly tested yet. Analysing large-scale brain n ...

Shared functional connectome fingerprints following ritualistic ayahuasca intake

Enrico Amico, Hanna Tolle, Pablo Mallaroni

The knowledge that brain functional connectomes are unique and reliable has enabled behaviourally relevant inferences at a subject level. However, whether such "fingerprints" persist under altered states of consciousness is unknown. Ayahuasca is a potent s ...

From basic sciences and engineering to epileptology: A translational approach

Mahsa Shoaran

Collaborative efforts between basic scientists, engineers, and clinicians are enabling translational epileptology. In this article, we summarize the recent advances presented at the International Conference for Technology and Analysis of Seizures (ICTALS 2 ...

Perceptual Learning: Policy Insights From Basic Research to Real-World Applications

Michael Herzog

Perceptual learning is the process by which experience alters how incoming sensory information is processed by the brain to give rise to behavior-it is critical for how humans educate children, train experts, treat diseases, and promote health and well-bei ...

Mind blanking is a distinct mental state linked to a recurrent brain profile of globally positive connectivity during ongoing mentation

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Sepehr Mortaheb

Mind blanking (MB) is a waking state during which we do not report any mental con-tent. The phenomenology of MB challenges the view of a constantly thinking mind. Here, we comprehensively characterize the MB's neurobehavioral profile with the aim to deline ...

Metabolic, cellular and defense responses to single and co-exposure to carbamazepine and methylmercury in Dreissena polymorpha

Florian Frédéric Vincent Breider, Dominique Grandjean

Carbamazepine (CBZ) and Hg are widespread and persistent micropollutants in aquatic environments. Both pollutants are known to trigger similar toxicity mechanisms, e.g. reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. Here, their effects were assessed in the zebr ...

A new empirical challenge for local theories of consciousness

Adrien Christophe Doerig

Local theories of consciousness state that one is conscious of a feature if it is adequately represented and processed in sensory brain areas, given some background conditions. We challenge the core prediction of local theories based on long-lasting postdi ...

Robot-induced hallucinations in Parkinson’s disease depend on altered sensorimotor processing in fronto-temporal network

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Olaf Blanke, Fosco Bernasconi, Jevita Potheegadoo, Nathan Quentin Faivre, Giulio Rognini, Masayuki Hara, Michela Bassolino, Michel Akselrod, Eva Blondiaux

Hallucinations in Parkinson’s disease (PD) are disturbing and frequent non-motor symptoms and constitute a major risk factor for psychosis and dementia. We report a robotics-based approach applying conflicting sensorimotor stimulation, enabling the inducti ...

Fronto-Temporal Disconnection Within the Presence Hallucination Network in Psychotic Patients With Passivity Experiences

Olaf Blanke, Alessandra Griffa, Jevita Potheegadoo, Kim Do, Patric Hagmann, Nathan Quentin Faivre, Roy Salomon, Giulio Rognini, Eva Blondiaux, Giedre Stripeikyte

Psychosis, characterized by hallucinations and delusions, is a common feature of psychiatric disease, especially schizophrenia. One prominent theory posits that psychosis is driven by abnormal sensorimotor predictions leading to the misattribution of self- ...

Cogno-Vest: A Torso-Worn, Force Display to Experimentally Induce Specific Hallucinations and Related Bodily Sensations

Olaf Blanke, Hannes Bleuler, Jevita Potheegadoo, Oliver Alan Kannape, Masayuki Hara, Kenny Jeanmonod, Atena Fadaeijouybari

Recent advances in virtual reality and robotic technologies have allowed researchers to explore the mechanisms underlying bodily aspects of self-consciousness which are largely attributed to the multisensory and sensorimotor processing of bodily signals (b ...
