How critical is brain criticality?
Criticality is the singular state of complex systems poised at the brink of a phase transition
between order and randomness. Such systems display remarkable information-processing …

In vivo mapping of pharmacologically induced functional reorganization onto the human brain's neurotransmitter landscape
To understand how pharmacological interventions can exert their powerful effects on brain
function, we need to understand how they engage the brain's rich neurotransmitter …

Neural complexity is increased after low doses of LSD, but not moderate to high doses of oral THC or methamphetamine
Neural complexity correlates with one's level of consciousness. During coma, anesthesia,
and sleep, complexity is reduced. During altered states, including after lysergic acid …
