Towards personalized mapping through lumbosacral spinal cord task fMRI

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Nawal Noëlle Kinany, Ilaria Ricchi

The lumbosacral spinal cord contains neural circuits crucial for locomotion, organized into rostrocaudal levels with distinct somatosensory and motor neuron pools that project to and from the muscles of the lower limbs. However, the specific spinal levels ...

Video-evoked neuromarkers of visual function in age-related macular degeneration

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville

Neural markers of visual function in age-related macular degeneration (AMD) allow clinicians and researchers to directly evaluate the functional changes in visual processing which occur as a result of the progressive loss of afferent input from the macula. ...

On Reconstruction of Cortical Functional Maps Using Subject-Specific Geometric and Connectome Eigenmodes

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Hamid Behjat

Understanding the interplay between human brain structure and function is crucial to discern neural dynamics. This study explores the relation between brain structure and macroscale functional activity using subject-specific structural connectome eigenmode ...

Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus: A sulcal morphometry approach to brain phenotype and clinical response

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Alessandra Griffa

Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH), the leading cause of reversible dementia in older adults, is characterized by urinary incontinence, gait impairment, cognitive decline, and ventriculomegaly. Neuroradiological features rely on visual assessm ...

Multiscale Quantification of Hemispheric Asymmetry in Cortical Maps Using Geometric Eigenmodes

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville

Hemispheric asymmetry is a universal property of brain organization with wide implications into brain function and structure, and diseases. This study presents a laterality index for characterizing hemispheric asymmetries that underlie cortical maps using ...

TR(Acking) Individuals Down: Exploring the Effect of Temporal Resolution in Resting-State Functional MRI Fingerprinting

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Enrico Amico, Francesca Saviola

Functional brain fingerprinting has emerged as an influential tool to quantify reliability in neuroimaging studies and to identify cognitive biomarkers in both healthy and clinical populations. Recent studies have revealed that brain fingerprints reside in ...

A Longitudinal and Reproducible Anti-coactivation Pattern Between the Cerebellum and the Ventral Tegmental Area Relates to Apathy in Schizophrenia

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Farnaz Delavari

Negative symptoms of schizophrenia lack effective treatments. Anomalies in the reward system and cerebellum have been linked to these symptoms. The cerebellum modulates reward circuitry via the ventral tegmental area (VTA). The "cognitive dysmetria theory" ...

Neurobiology and Cognition in Girls at High-risk of Eating Disorders: Exploring Imaging-derived Trait Markers

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville

Background: Eating disorders (EDs) are serious psychiatric disorders characterized by impairments in neurocognition and altered brain structure. To date the majority of studies have investigated these in acutely ill or recovered individuals. Studying child ...

Community detection for directed networks revisited using bimodularity

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Alexandre Cionca

Community structure is a key feature omnipresent in real-world network data. Plethora of methods have been proposed to reveal subsets of densely interconnected nodes using criteria such as the modularity index. These approaches have been successful for und ...
