A small corner of the neuroscience world was in a frenzy. It was mid-June and a scientific paper had just been published claiming that years worth of results were riddled with errors. The study had ...
Insomnia is a common, distressing, and clinically important symptom, which causes difficulty initiating sleep; frequent awakening; or early-morning awakening with daytime dysfunction. Approximately ...
A team of researchers has revealed how the brain processes emotional information of sustained pain and pleasure. Using functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI), the team recorded brain activity ...
The spatial resolution of fMRI is relatively poor and improvements are needed to indicate more specific locations for functional activities. Here, we propose a novel scheme, called Static T2*WI-based ...

Using fMRI machines, researchers at Brown University have figured out how to create associations in their subjects’ brains without their conscious knowledge. In a Current Biology paper, the team ...
In Part 2 of Principles of fMRI, you will continue exploring the theoretical considerations and practical aspects of conducting fMRI studies with an emphasis on statistical analysis. By completing ...
Scientists have trained a computer program to identify people with suicidal thoughts based on their brain scans. The study is small, but the method could one day be used for diagnosing mental health ...
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a non-invasive and safe technique to measure and map the activities of brain during normal as well as diseased conditions. It measures the the changes ...
