Deep Learning Model Reveals Mechanisms of Semantic Satiation Semantic satiation, the phenomenon where a word or phrase loses its meaning after being repeated many times, is a well-known psychological phenomenon. However, the micro-neural computational principles underlying this mechanism remain unknown. This paper uses a continuous coupled neural n...
Electrophysiological Signatures of Veridical Head Direction in Humans Navigation is one of the core components of human complex cognition, where head direction information is crucial for positioning oneself in space. However, due to the requirement of having the head fixed in a specific position during most neuroimaging experiments, understanding h...
Brain Mechanism Study on Emotion Processing Bias in Patients with Highly Treatment-Resistant Depression Background Introduction Depression is one of the mental diseases prevalent in modern society that severely affect individuals’ physical and mental health. According to Beck’s cognitive model, the development and maintenance of depression are larg...
The Ventral Subiculum Promotes Wakefulness Through Multiple Pathways in Male Mice Background The ventral subiculum (vsub) is a major output region of the hippocampus, playing a crucial role in motivation, stress integration, and anxiety-like behavior, all of which depend on a high state of wakefulness. However, the role of vsub in wakefulness and i...
Overview A paper titled “Supervised latent factor modeling isolates cell-type-specific transcriptomic modules that underlie Alzheimer’s disease progression” was published in Communications Biology. The paper was co-authored by research scientists from institutions such as McGill University, Université de Montréal, Yale University, and Rush Universi...
“Internal Speech Representation by Single Neurons in Human Supramarginal Gyrus” Scientific Report Background In recent years, Brain-Machine Interfaces (BMIs) technology has made significant advancements in the field of speech decoding. BMIs enable those who have lost the ability to speak due to disease or injury to communicate again by converting b...
Study of Neuroepithelial Genetic Markers and Prognosis in High-Grade Gliomas Background and Research Motivation High-grade gliomas are highly malignant brain tumors with generally poor patient prognosis. Previous preclinical model studies have suggested that interactions between neural and tumor cells drive tumor growth, but clinical validation of ...
Research Report: The Connection Between Cortical Gene Expression and Neurodevelopmental Disorders Research Background The anatomical and functional organization of the human brain is the result of the coordinated expression of numerous genes. It has been found that the first principal component (c1) of cortical gene expression plays a significant r...
Research Background Threat avoidance often comes at a cost, especially in situations involving threat-reward conflict, where avoiding threats might reduce the opportunity to gain potential rewards. In threat-reward conflicts, individuals need to balance the potential rewards and threat outcomes of their decisions to generate adaptive behavior. Howe...
Language and Sensory Characteristics of Very Low Birth Weight Children in Response to Sound Background and Motivation Very Low Birth Weight (VLBW) children face higher risks of cognitive developmental obstacles, including language deficits and sensory-motor difficulties. Previous studies have indicated that sound-evoked brain responses (P1m) can se...
