Many human brain disorders are associated with characteristic alterations in the structural
and functional connectivity of the brain. In this article, we explore how commonalities and …

Virtually all domains of cognitive function require the integration of distributed neural activity.
Network analysis of human brain connectivity has consistently identified sets of regions that …

Cybernetics, the study of goal-directed, adaptive systems, is the best framework for an
integrative theory of personality. Cybernetic Big Five Theory attempts to provide a …

The brain must dynamically integrate, coordinate, and respond to internal and external
stimuli across multiple time scales. Non-invasive measurements of brain activity with fMRI …

Entropy is a dimensionless quantity that is used for measuring uncertainty about the state of
a system but it can also imply physical qualities, where high entropy is synonymous with …

For more than one century, brain processing was mainly thought in a localizationist
framework, in which one given function was underpinned by a discrete, isolated cortical …

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Changes in gut microbiota have been reported to alter signaling
mechanisms, emotional behavior, and visceral nociceptive reflexes in rodents. However …

Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (RFMRI) enables researchers to
monitor fluctuations in the spontaneous brain activities of thousands of regions in the human …

Schizophrenia—a severe psychiatric condition characterized by hallucinations, delusions,
loss of initiative and cognitive function—is hypothesized to result from abnormal anatomical …

Psychedelic drugs produce profound changes in consciousness, but the underlying
neurobiological mechanisms for this remain unclear. Spontaneous and induced oscillatory …
