Brain connectome correlates of short-term motor learning in healthy older subjects

Friedhelm Christoph Hummel, Takuya Morishita, Chang-Hyun Park, Manon Chloé Durand-Ruel, Maeva Moyne

The motor learning process entails plastic changes in the brain, especially in brain network reconfigurations. In the current study, we sought to characterize motor learning by determining changes in the coupling behaviour between the brain functional and ...

Axonal projections from mouse whisker-related sensory cortex

Yanqi Liu

Neurons primarily communicate through release of neurotransmitter from presynaptic specialisations along their axonal arborisations. In order to understand the functional role of a specific neuron, it is therefore of great interest to know the structure of ...

Striatal Dopamine Signals and Reward Learning

Meriam Malekzadeh, Robin François Virginien Dard, Carl Petersen, Sylvain Crochet, Yanqi Liu, Parviz Ghaderi, Christos Sourmpis, Pol Bech Vilaseca, Mauro Pulin, Anthony Pierre Robert Renard

We are constantly bombarded by sensory information and constantly making decisions on how to act. In order to optimally adapt behavior, we must judge which sequences of sensory inputs and actions lead to successful outcomes in specific circumstances. Neuro ...

A digital bridge between brain and spinal cord restores walking after paralysis

Grégoire Courtine, Jocelyne Bloch

Spinal-cord injury interrupts communication between the brain and spinal cord, leading to paralysis. An implant that decodes the brain signals that control movements and drives electrical stimulation of the spinal cord re-establishes this communication, en ...

Plasticity of sensory representations in the posterior insular cortex during fear learning

Denys Osypenko

Aversively-motivated associative learning allows animals to avoid harm and thus ensures survival. Aversive learning can be studied by the fear learning paradigm, in which an innocuous sensory stimulus like a tone (conditioned stimulus, CS), acquires a nega ...

Early motor skill acquisition in healthy older adults: brain correlates of the learning process

Friedhelm Christoph Hummel, Takuya Morishita, Chang-Hyun Park, Pablo Maceira Elvira, Manon Chloé Durand-Ruel, Maeva Moyne

Motor skill learning is a crucial process at all ages. However, healthy aging is often accompanied by a reduction in motor learning capabilities. This study characterized the brain dynamics of healthy older adults during motor skill acquisition and identif ...

Increased functional connectivity in the right dorsal auditory stream after a full year of piano training in healthy older adults

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville

Learning to play an instrument at an advanced age may help to counteract or slow down age-related cognitive decline. However, studies investigating the neural underpinnings of these effects are still scarce. One way to investigate the effects of brain plas ...

Brain matters: unveiling the distinct contributions of region, age, and sex to glia diversity and CNS function

Gioele La Manno, Zahra Moslehi

The myelinated white matter tracts of the central nervous system (CNS) are essential for fast transmission of electrical impulses and are often differentially affected in human neurodegenerative diseases across CNS region, age and sex. We hypothesize that ...

Tonic pain alters functional connectivity of the descending pain modulatory network involving amygdala, periaqueductal gray, parabrachial nucleus and anterior cingulate cortex

Anne-Christine Schmid

Introduction: Resting state functional connectivity (FC) is widely used to assess functional brain alterations in patients with chronic pain. However, reports of FC accompanying tonic pain in pain-free persons are rare. A network we term the Descending Pai ...

Exploring negative capacitance and neuromorphic devices based on CMOS-compatible ferroelectric HfO2

Carlotta Gastaldi

Ferroelectric materials are explored for numerous applications thanks to their properties associated with electrically switchable spontaneous polarization. Perovskites are an established class of ferroelectrics used for sensors and actuators. However, they ...
