No impact of functional connectivity of the motor system on the resting motor threshold: A replication study.
The physiological mechanisms of corticospinal excitability and factors influencing its measurement with transcranial magnetic stimulation are still poorly understood. A recent study reported an impact of functional connectivity between the primary...
Safety and recommendations for TMS use in healthy subjects and patient populations, with updates on training, ethical and regulatory issues: Expert Guidelines
This article is based on a consensus conference, promoted and supported by the International Federation of Clinical Neurophysiology (IFCN), which took…
Black In Neuro x neuromatch Crossover Event Registration
Black in Neuro is teaming up with neuromatch to bring you even MORE great programming during the neuromatch conference.
Loved our NeuroRacism panel from #BlackInNeuroWeek? We are back at it again with a three-part NeuroRacism event. First up,...
Mapping the organization and dynamics of the posterior medial network during movie watching
Brain regions within a posterior medial network (PMN) are characterized by sensitivity to episodic tasks, and they also demonstrate strong functional connectivity as part of the default network. Despite its cohesive structure, delineating the...

Functional engagement of white matter in resting-state brain networks
The topological characteristics of functional networks, derived from measurements of resting-state connectivity in gray matter (GM), are associated wi…
Cognitive deficits in people who have recovered from COVID-19 relative to controls: An N=84,285 online study
Case studies have revealed neurological problems in severely affected COVID-19 patients. However, there is little information regarding the nature and broader prevalence of cognitive problems post-infection or across the full spread of severity. We...
Proceeding with caution in the CR: New interim pay lines for FY 2021
Read this blog post to learn about updated interim pay lines under the continuing resolution for NIA grant applications in Alzheimer's and related dementias and other aging research.
Alzheimer's pathology is associated with dedifferentiation of functional memory networks in aging
In presymptomatic Alzheimer's disease (AD), beta-amyloid plaques and tau tangles accumulate in distinct spatiotemporal patterns within the brain, tracking closely with episodic memory decline. Here, we tested whether age-related changes in the...
Sculpting New Visual Concepts into the Human Brain
Learning requires changing the brain. This typically occurs through experience, study, or instruction. We report a new way of acquiring conceptual knowledge by directly sculpting activity patterns in the human brain. We used a non-invasive technique...
The effect of functionally-guided-connectivity-based rTMS on amygdala activation.
Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has fundamentally transformed how we treat psychiatric disorders, but is still in need of innovation to optimally correct dysregulation that occurs throughout the fronto-limbic network. rTMS is...
Why Older People Might Suffer Most, Post-Pandemic
By grouping all people 65 and older into one category, we may inadvertently make a world where later years are valued less
Assessing cerebellar-cortical connectivity using concurrent TMS-EEG: A Feasibility Study
Background: Combined single-pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and electroencephalography (EEG) has been used to probe the features of local networks in the cerebral cortex. Here we investigate whether we can use this approach to explore...

Competition and Control during Working Memory
Cambridge Core - Biological Psychology - Competition and Control during Working Memory
Welcome the New RePORT and RePORTER Tools!
Ten years ago, NIH launched the RePORT (Research Portfolio Online Reporting Tools) website to serve as a one-stop shop for reports, data, and analyses of NIH research activities. Well, drum roll pl…
Effect of apolipoprotein E polymorphism on cognition and brain in the Cambridge Centre for Ageing and Neuroscience cohort - Richard N. Henson, Sana Suri, Ethan Knights, James B. Rowe, Rogier A. Kievit, Donald M. Lyall, Dennis Chan, Else Eising, Simon E. F
Polymorphisms in the apolipoprotein E (APOE) gene have been associated with individual differences in cognition, brain structure and brain function. For example...
