Optogenetic Dissection of the Basal Forebrain Neuromodulatory Control of Cortical Activation, Plasticity, and Cognition

The basal forebrain (BF) houses major ascending projections to the entire neocortex that have long been implicated in arousal, learning, and attention. The disruption of the BF has been linked with major neurological disorders, such as coma and Alzheimer's ...

ProNodal acts via FGFR3 to govern duration of Shh expression in the prechordal mesoderm

Daniel Constam

The secreted glycoprotein sonic hedgehog (Shh) is expressed in the prechordal mesoderm, where it plays a crucial role in induction and patterning of the ventral forebrain. Currently little is known about how Shh is regulated in prechordal tissue. Here we s ...

Lateralization of the primary auditory cortex, in patients with unilateral tinnitus

Melissa Saenz, Wietske Van der Zwaag, Naghmeh Ghazaleh

Tinnitus, the chronic perception of ringing or other phantom sounds, is typically associated with hearing loss. The reduction of auditory input that conveys to auditory cortex leads to the changes in the balance of excitatory and inhibitory activation of t ...

Costs of control: decreased motor cortex engagement during a Go/NoGo task in Tourette's syndrome

Friedhelm Christoph Hummel

Gilles de la Tourette syndrome is a neuropsychiatric disorder characterized by an impaired ability to inhibit unwanted behaviour. Although the presence of chronic motor and vocal tics defines Tourette's syndrome, other distinctive behavioural features like ...

Ferritin H gene deletion in the choroid plexus and forebrain results in hydrocephalus

Patrick Fraering, Claude André Schweizer

Ferritin H, the major iron storage protein, has essential functions in early embryonic development as well as in adult liver and intestine. To address the question whether ferritin H has similarly essential functions in the brain we used the Cre/loxP syste ...

Bimanual brain-machine interface

Solaiman Shokur, Miguel Nicolelis, Mikhail Lebedev, Zheng Li

Brain-machine interfaces (BMIs) - devices that connect brain areas to external actuators - strive to restore limb mobility and sensation to patients suffering from paralysis or limb loss. Here we report a novel BMI that controls two virtual arms simultaneo ...

Classifying minimally disabled multiple sclerosis patients from resting state functional connectivity

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Patric Hagmann, Jonas Richiardi

Multiple sclerosis (MS), a variable and diffuse disease affecting white and gray matter, is known to cause functional connectivity anomalies in patients. However, related studies published to-date are post hoc; our hypothesis was that such alterations coul ...

Materials for neural interfaces

Philippe Renaud

The treatment of disorders of the nervous system poses a major clinical challenge. Development of neuromodulation (i.e., interfacing electronics to nervous tissue to modulate its function) has provided patients with neuronal-related deficits a new tool to ...

Histogram Analysis of the Microvasculature of Intracerebral Human and Murine Glioma Xenografts

Nathalie Just

The purpose of this study is to examine the usefulness of histogram analysis combined with vessel size index (VSI) magnetic resonance imaging for the specific characterization of brain tumor microvasculature in a panel of six volume-matched glioma xenograf ...

Stump nerve signals during transcranial magnetic motor cortex stimulation recorded in an amputee via longitudinal intrafascicular electrodes

Silvestro Micera, Jacopo Rigosa

Do central and peripheral motor pathways associated with an amputated limb retain at least some functions over periods of years? This problem could be addressed by evaluating the response patterns of nerve signals from peripheral motor fibers during transc ...
