Molecular reconstruction and simulation of the Neuron-Glia-Vasculature system

The outstanding information processing capacity of the brain relies on numerous molecular mechanisms. It is an extremely energy-expensive function, which involves specialization and collaboration of different cell types. A common framework to study the com ...

Common and distinct brain networks of autoscopic phenomena

Olaf Blanke, Lukas Heydrich, Eva Blondiaux

Objective Autoscopic phenomena (AP) are illusory own body reduplications characterized by the visual perception of a second own body in extrapersonal space, and include three main forms: autoscopic hallucination (AH), heautoscopy (HAS) and out-of-body-expe ...

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- ...

Synchronous nonmonotonic changes in functional connectivity and white matter integrity in a rat model of sporadic Alzheimer's disease

Bernard Lanz, Katarzyna Pierzchala, Ileana Ozana Jelescu, Carole Poitry-Yamate, Ting Yin, Yujian Diao

Brain glucose hypometabolism has been singled out as an important contributor and possibly main trigger to Alzheimer's disease (AD). Intracerebroventricular injections of streptozotocin (icv-STZ) cause brain glucose hypometabolism without systemic diabetes ...

Understanding Computational Costs of Cellular-Level Brain Tissue Simulations Through Analytical Performance Models

Felix Schürmann, Francesco Cremonesi

Computational modeling and simulation have become essential tools in the quest to better understand the brain's makeup and to decipher the causal interrelations of its components. The breadth of biochemical and biophysical processes and structures in the b ...

Temporal Dissociation of Neocortical and Hippocampal Contributions to Mental Time Travel Using Intracranial Recordings in Humans

Olaf Blanke

In mental time travel (MTT) one is "traveling" back-and-forth in time, remembering, and imagining events. Despite intensive research regarding memory processes in the hippocampus, it was only recently shown that the hippocampus plays an essential role in e ...

Inter-hemispherical asymmetry in default-mode functional connectivity and BAIAP2 gene are associated with anger expression in ADHD adults

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Maria Giulia Preti, Djalel Eddine Meskaldji

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is accompanied by resting-state alterations, including abnormal activity, connectivity and asymmetry of the default-mode network (DMN). Concurrently, recent studies suggested a link between ADHD and the prese ...

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 ...

Common and distinct brain regions processing multisensory bodily signals for peripersonal space and body ownership

Olaf Blanke, Andrea Serino, Petr Grivaz

We take the feeling that our body belongs to us for granted. However, recent research has shown that it is possible to alter the subjective sensation of body ownership (BO) by manipulating multisensory bodily inputs. Several frontal and parietal regions ar ...

Decreased integration and information capacity in stroke measured by whole brain models of resting state activity

Alessandra Griffa, Patric Hagmann

While several studies have shown that focal lesions affect the communication between structurally normal regions of the brain, and that these changes may correlate with behavioural deficits, their impact on brain's information processing capacity is curren ...
