Linchpin to the entire area of psychophysiological research and discussion of the vagus is
the respiratory and cardiovascular phenomenon known as respiratory sinus arrhythmia …

Each organism must regulate its internal state in a metabolically efficient way as it interacts
in space and time with an ever-changing and only partly predictable world. Success in this …

Viewing brain function through the lense of other physiological processes has critically
added to our understanding of human cognition. Further advances though may need a …

Brain and breathing activities are closely related. However, the exact neurophysiological
mechanisms that couple the brain and breathing to stimuli in the external environment are …

There is growing attention towards atypical brain-body interactions and interoceptive
processes and their potential role in psychiatric conditions, including affective and anxiety …

The brain continuously anticipates the energetic needs of the body and prepares to meet
those needs before they arise, a process called allostasis. In support of allostasis, the brain …

Computational Psychopathology is an emerging discipline, which is based around the
theoretical and mechanistic focus of explanatory psychopathology and computational …

Breathing is a complex, vital function that can be modulated to influence physical and mental
well-being. However, the role of cortical and subcortical brain regions in voluntary control of …

This article presents evidence indicating that intracranial pressure (ICP) pulsatility,
associated with the heartbeat and breathing, is not just a source of mechanical artefact in …

Respiration and cardiac activity intricately interact through complex physiological
mechanisms. The heartbeat-evoked potential (HEP) is an EEG fluctuation reflecting the …
