It is a central question in neuroscience to understand how different regions of the brain interact, how strongly they "talk" ...

A novel mathematical approach enables the identification of brain regions whose connectivity shifts in autism or aging, informing targeted brain stimulation therapies.

The brain’s internal communication patterns change over the course of our lives and also differ in people with certain neurological conditions. Understanding these processes is one of the central ...

A study published June 25 in the American Journal of Psychiatry provides new insights into a long-standing question in psychiatric research: What is the underlying neurobiological mechanism of ...

When I first heard the term "default mode network," I wondered if it had something to do with telephones or the internet. It doesn't. What it does have to do with is much more intriguing. The default ...

As you read this, in the background—or perhaps the foreground—is the wandering mind. This basal activity may be best represented in current neuroscience by the Default Mode Network (DMN). The DMN is ...

In a recent study published in Nature Mental Health, a group of researchers evaluated if a neurobiological model of the default-mode network (DMN) effective connectivity can predict future dementia ...

Patients with first-episode MDD showed lower effective and functional connectivity between the anterior cingulate cortex and frontal regions.

Researchers find that communication between key brain regions shortly after injury may predict long-term functional recovery ...
