The posterior cingulate cortex is a highly connected and metabolically active brain region.
Recent studies suggest it has an important cognitive role, although there is no consensus …

The posterior cingulate cortex (PCC) is a central part of the default mode network (DMN)
and part of the structural core of the brain. Although the PCC often shows consistent …

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-…

Psychedelic drugs have a long history of use in healing ceremonies, but despite renewed
interest in their therapeutic potential, we continue to know very little about how they work in the …

Diffuse axonal injury after traumatic brain injury (TBI) produces neurological impairment by
disconnecting brain networks. This structural damage can be mapped using diffusion MRI, …

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 …

Lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) is the prototypical psychedelic drug, but its effects on the
human brain have never been studied before with modern neuroimaging. Here, three …

White matter disruption is an important determinant of cognitive impairment after brain injury,
but conventional neuroimaging underestimates its extent. In contrast, diffusion tensor …

There is considerable uncertainty about the function of the posterior cingulate cortex (PCC).
The PCC is a major node within the default mode network (DMN) and has high metabolic …

Efficient behavior involves the coordinated activity of large-scale brain networks, but the
way in which these networks interact is uncertain. One theory is that the salience network (SN)—…
