Vascular pathology is a major feature of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and other dementias. We
recently showed that chronic administration of the target-of-rapamycin (TOR) inhibitor …

The default mode network (DMN) of the brain is functionally associated with a wide range of
behaviors. In this study, we used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), positron …

The salience network (SN) and default mode network (DMN) play a crucial role in cognitive
function. The SN, anchored in the anterior insular cortex (AI), has been hypothesized to …

Animal whole-brain functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) provides a non-invasive
window into brain activity. A collection of associated methods aims to replicate observations …

Connectivity of the prefrontal cortex (PFC) matures through adolescence, coinciding with
emergence of adult executive function and top‐down inhibitory control over behavior. Alcohol …

Several neuropsychiatric conditions, such as addiction and schizophrenia, may arise in part
from dysregulated activity of ventral tegmental area dopaminergic (TH VTA) neurons, as well …

The default mode network (DMN) is critical for self-referential mental processes, and its
dysfunction is implicated in many neuropsychiatric disorders. However, the neurophysiological …

Alterations in genes that regulate brain size may contribute to both microcephaly and brain
tumor formation. Here, we report that Aspm, a gene that is mutated in familial microcephaly, …

Accurate removal of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) signal outside the brain, aka, skull
stripping, is a key step in the brain image pre-processing pipelines. In rodents, this is mostly …

The supramammillary nucleus (SuM) provides substantial innervation to the dentate gyrus (DG).
It remains unknown how the SuM and DG coordinate their activities at the circuit level to …
