Metabolic and hemodynamic changes in the activated human brain and cerebellar organisation measured by MRS/MRl at 7 Tesla

Although less often investigated than the positive blood-oxygen-level-dependent (BOLD) signal, a negative BOLD signal has also been observed under certain conditions, which could have a neuronal origin. To further investigate the negative BOLD signal from ...

Towards quantitative brain connectomics: microstructure informed tractography via convex optimization

Muhamed Barakovic

Tractography is the only non-invasive technique which is used to reconstruct the white mat- ter structural connectivity of the human brain. It relies on a specific Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) acquisition, called diffusion MRI, which is sensitive to th ...

Multi T1-weighted contrast MRI with fluid and white matter suppression at 1.5 T

Giulio Gambarota, Tobias Kober

Introduction: The fluid and white matter suppression sequence (FLAWS) provides two T1-weighted co-registered datasets: a white matter (WM) suppressed contrast (FLAWS1) and a cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) suppressed contrast (FLAWS2). FLAWS has the potential to ...

Activity induced synchronization: Mutual flocking and chiral self-sorting

Ignacio Pagonabarraga Mora

Synchronization, the temporal coordination of coupled oscillators, allows fireflies to flash in unison, neurons to fire collectively, and human crowds to fall in step on the London millenium bridge. Here, we interpret active (or self-propelled) chiral micr ...

Multimode microwave circuit optomechanics as a platform to study coupled quantum harmonic oscillators

Nathan Rafaël Bernier

Harmonic oscillators might be one of the most fundamental entities described by physics. Yet they stay relevant in recent research. The topological properties associated with exceptional points that can occur when two modes interact have generated much int ...

The unfolding argument: Why IIT and other causal structure theories cannot explain consciousness

Kathryn Hess Bellwald, Michael Herzog, Adrien Christophe Doerig, Aaron Schurger

How can we explain consciousness? This question has become a vibrant topic of neuroscience research in recent decades. A large body of empirical results has been accumulated, and many theories have been proposed. Certain theories suggest that consciousness ...

Elastomer-based pneumatic device to measure the mechanical properties of cell monolayers

Francesca Sorba

Everyday life physiological functions such as breathing, muscle contraction, and blood circulation rely on the ability of single cells to organize into higher complexity structures and sustain mechanical deformations. Cell monolayers are the simplest tissu ...

Supervised learning to quantify amyloidosis in whole brains of an Alzheimer's disease mouse model acquired with optical projection tomography

Theo Lasser, Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Aleksandra Radenovic, Paul James Marchand, Virginie Sophie Uhlmann, David Nguyen, Arielle Louise Planchette

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by amyloidosis of brain tissues. This phenomenon is studied with genetically-modified mouse models. We propose a method to quantify amyloidosis in whole 5xFAD mouse brains, a model of AD. We use optical projection ...
