Cortical-subcortical structural connections support transcranial magnetic stimulation engagement of the amygdala

…, M Cieslak, R Duprat, J Deluisi, MW Flounders… - Science …, 2022 - science.org
The amygdala processes valenced stimuli, influences emotion, and exhibits aberrant activity
across anxiety disorders, depression, and PTSD. Interventions modulating amygdala …

ASLPrep: a platform for processing of arterial spin labeled MRI and quantification of regional brain perfusion

…, C Davatzikos, DG Davila, MA Elliott, MW Flounders… - Nature …, 2022 - nature.com
Arterial spin labeled (ASL) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the primary method for
noninvasively measuring regional brain perfusion in humans. We introduce ASLPrep, a suite of …

Resting fMRI-guided TMS results in subcortical and brain network modulation indexed by interleaved TMS/fMRI

…, M Scully, BM Rosenberg, MW Flounders… - Experimental brain …, 2021 - Springer
Traditional non-invasive imaging methods describe statistical associations of functional co-activation
over time. They cannot easily establish hierarchies in communication as done in …

[HTML][HTML] A dual role of prestimulus spontaneous neural activity in visual object recognition

E Podvalny, MW Flounders, LE King, T Holroyd… - Nature …, 2019 - nature.com
Vision relies on both specific knowledge of visual attributes, such as object categories, and
general brain states, such as those reflecting arousal. We hypothesized that these …

Content-specific activity in frontoparietal and default-mode networks during prior-guided visual perception

C González-García, MW Flounders, R Chang, AT Baria… - elife, 2018 - elifesciences.org
10.7554/eLife.36068.001 How prior knowledge shapes perceptual processing across the
human brain, particularly in the frontoparietal (FPN) and default-mode (DMN) networks, …

Neural dynamics of visual ambiguity resolution by perceptual prior

MW Flounders, C González-García, R Hardstone… - Elife, 2019 - elifesciences.org
10.7554/eLife.41861.001 Past experiences have enormous power in shaping our daily
perception. Currently, dynamical neural mechanisms underlying this process remain mysterious. …

Frequency-specific neural signatures of perceptual content and perceptual stability

R Hardstone, MW Flounders, M Zhu, BJ He - Elife, 2022 - elifesciences.org
In the natural environment, we often form stable perceptual experiences from ambiguous and
fleeting sensory inputs. Which neural activity underlies the content of perception and which …

Resting fMRI-guided TMS evokes subgenual anterior cingulate response in depression

…, YI Sheline, X Liang, G Bagdon, MW Flounders… - bioRxiv, 2022 - biorxiv.org
Depression alleviation following treatment with repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS)
tends to be more effective when TMS is targeted to cortical areas with high resting …

[HTML][HTML] Neural integration underlying naturalistic prediction flexibly adapts to varying sensory input rate

…, B Maniscalco, JL Lee, MW Flounders… - Nature …, 2021 - nature.com
Prediction of future sensory input based on past sensory information is essential for organisms
to effectively adapt their behavior in dynamic environments. Humans successfully predict …

Unconsciously elicited perceptual prior

R Chang, AT Baria, MW Flounders… - Neuroscience of …, 2016 - academic.oup.com
Increasing evidence over the past decade suggests that vision is not simply a passive, feed-forward
process in which cortical areas relay progressively more abstract information to …
