Entraining Movement-Related Brain Oscillations to Suppress Tics in Tourette Syndrome (2020)
Journal Article
Morera Maiquez, B., Sigurdsson, H. P., Dyke, K., Clarke, E., McGrath, P., Pasche, M., …Jackson, S. R. (2020). Entraining Movement-Related Brain Oscillations to Suppress Tics in Tourette Syndrome. Current Biology, 30(12), 2334-2342.e3. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.2020.04.044

Tourette syndrome (TS) is a neuropsychiatric disorder characterised by the occurrence of vocal and motor tics. Tics are involuntary, repetitive, movements and vocalisations that occur in bouts, typically many times in a single day, and are often prec...

A Neural Basis for Contagious Yawning (2017)
Journal Article
Brown, B. J., Kim, S., Saunders, H., Bachmann, C., Thompson, J., Ropar, D., …Jackson, G. M. (2017). A Neural Basis for Contagious Yawning. Current Biology, 27(17), 2713-2717.e2. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.2017.07.062

Contagious yawning, in which yawning is triggered involuntarily when we observe another person yawn, is a common form of echophenomena—the automatic imitation of another’s words (echolalia) or actions (echopraxia) [1]. The neural basis for echophenom... Read More about A Neural Basis for Contagious Yawning.

Activation induced changes in GABA: functional MRS at 7 T with MEGA-sLASER (2017)
Journal Article
Chen, C., Sigurdsson, H. P., Pépés, S. E., Auer, D. P., Morris, P. G., Morgan, P. S., …Jackson, S. R. (2017). Activation induced changes in GABA: functional MRS at 7 T with MEGA-sLASER. NeuroImage, 156, 207-213. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage.2017.05.044

Functional magnetic resonance spectroscopy (fMRS) has been used to assess the dynamic metabolic responses of the brain to a physiological stimulus non-invasively. However, only limited information on the dynamic functional response of γ-aminobutyric... Read More about Activation induced changes in GABA: functional MRS at 7 T with MEGA-sLASER.

Comparing GABA-­dependent physiological measures of inhibition with proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy measurement of GABA using ultra-­high-­field MRI (2017)
Journal Article
Dyke, K., Pépés, S. E., Chen, C., Kim, S., Sigurdsson, H. P., Draper, A., …Jackson, S. R. (2017). Comparing GABA-­dependent physiological measures of inhibition with proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy measurement of GABA using ultra-­high-­field MRI. NeuroImage, 152, 360-370. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage.2017.03.011

Imbalances in glutamatergic (excitatory) and GABA (inhibitory) signalling within key brain networks are thought to underlie many brain and mental health disorders, and for this reason there is considerable interest in investigating how individual var...
