The default mode network (DMN) is a set of widely distributed brain regions in the parietal,
temporal and frontal cortex. These regions often show reductions in activity during attention …

Along with the increased interest in and volume of social cognition research, there has been
higher awareness of a lack of agreement on the concepts and taxonomy used to study social …

Discoveries over the past two decades demonstrate that regions distributed throughout the
association cortex, often called the default network, are suppressed during tasks that …

Rumination is strongly and consistently correlated with depression. Although multiple
studies have explored the neural correlates of rumination, findings have been inconsistent …

The brain is constituted of multiple networks of functionally correlated brain areas, out of
which the default-mode network (DMN) is the largest. Most existing research into the DMN …

How does a lack of sleep affect our brains? In contrast to the benefits of sleep, frameworks
exploring the impact of sleep loss are relatively lacking. Importantly, the effects of sleep …

Understanding how the structure of cognition arises from the topographical organization of
the cortex is a primary goal in neuroscience. Previous work has described local functional …

New advances in neurobiology are revealing that brain development and the learning it
enables are directly dependent on social-emotional experience. Growing bodies of research …

While the role of cortical microstructure in organising neural function is well established, it
remains unclear how structural constraints can give rise to more flexible elements of …

Life history theory argues that exposure to early life adversity (ELA) accelerates
development, although existing evidence for this varies. We present a meta-analysis and …
