The goal of consciousness research is to reveal the neural basis of phenomenal experience.
To study phenomenology, experimenters seem obliged to ask reports from the subjects to …

When two dissimilar stimuli are presented to the eyes, perception alternates between
multiple interpretations, a phenomenon dubbed binocular rivalry. Numerous recent imaging …

Rivalry is a common tool to probe visual awareness: a constant physical stimulus evokes
multiple, distinct perceptual interpretations (“percepts”) that alternate over time. Percepts are …

Psychiatry faces fundamental challenges with regard to mechanistically guided differential
diagnosis, as well as prediction of clinical trajectories and treatment response of individual …

The development of large-scale network models that infer the effective (directed) connectivity
among neuronal populations from neuroimaging data represents a key challenge for …

Abstract Abstract: Abstract Declarative memories of personal experiences are a key factor in
defining oneself as an individual, which becomes particularly evident when this capability is …

Interoception, the perception of internal bodily states, is thought to be inextricably linked to
affective qualities such as anxiety. Although interoception spans sensory to metacognitive …

While being in the center of attention and exposed to other's evaluations humans are prone
to experience embarrassment. To characterize the neural underpinnings of such aversive …

Perceiving human faces constitutes a fundamental ability of the human mind, integrating a
wealth of information essential for social interactions in everyday life. Neuroimaging studies …

The development of whole-brain models that can infer effective (directed) connection strengths
from fMRI data represents a central challenge for computational neuroimaging. A recently …
