After a century of false hopes, recent studies have placed the concept of diaschisis at the
centre of the understanding of brain function. Originally, the term 'diaschisis' was coined by …

After focal damage, cerebral networks reorganise their structural and functional anatomy to
compensate for both the lesion itself and remote effects. Novel developments in the analysis …

Brain-computer interfaces (BCI) are used in stroke rehabilitation to translate brain signals
into intended movements of the paralyzed limb. However, the efficacy and mechanisms of …

Deficits following stroke are classically attributed to focal damage, but recent evidence
suggests a key role of distributed brain network disruption. We measured resting functional …

Intrinsic coupling constitutes a key feature of ongoing brain activity, which exhibits rich
spatiotemporal patterning and contains information that influences cognitive processing. We …

With increasing rates of survival throughout the past several years, stroke remains one of the
leading causes of adult disability. Following the onset of stroke, spontaneous mechanisms of …

While shaped and constrained by axonal connections, fMRI-based functional connectivity
reorganizes in response to varying interareal input or pathological perturbations. However …

Stroke has long been regarded as focal disease with circumscribed damage leading to
neurological deficits. However, advances in methods for assessing the human brain and in …

To maximize brain plasticity after stroke, a plethora of rehabilitation strategies have been
explored. These include the use of intensive motor training, motor-imagery (MI), and action …

Rehabilitation for stroke patients with severe motor impairments is burdensome and
demanding because most of the current rehabilitation options require some volitional …
