Journal Article
Cottam, W. J., Iwabuchi, S. J., Drabek, M. M., Reckziegel, D., & Auer, D. P. (2018). Altered connectivity of the right anterior insula drives the pain connectome changes in chronic knee osteoarthritis. PAIN, 159(5), https://doi.org/10.1097/j.pain.0000000000001209

Resting-state functional connectivity (FC) has proven a powerful approach to understand the neural underpinnings of chronic pain, reporting altered connectivity in three main networks: the default mode (DMN), central executive (CEN), and the salience...

Background: Rodent studies indicate that noise exposure can cause permanent damage to synapses between inner hair cells and high-threshold auditory nerve fibers, without permanently altering threshold sensitivity. These demonstrations of what is comm... Read More about The Physiological Bases of Hidden Noise-Induced Hearing Loss: Protocol for a Functional Neuroimaging Study.

NeuroImage, 174, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage.2018.03.008

Network connectivity is an integral feature of human brain function, and characterising its maturational trajectory is a critical step towards understanding healthy and atypical neurodevelopment. Here, we used magnetoencephalography (MEG) to investig... Read More about Altered temporal stability in dynamic neural networks underlies connectivity changes in neurodevelopment.

Exploring the origins of EEG motion artefacts during simultaneous fMRI acquisition: implications for motion artefact correction (2018)
Journal Article
Spencer, G. S., Smith, J. A., Chowdhury, M. E., Bowtell, R. W., & Mullinger, K. J. (in press). Exploring the origins of EEG motion artefacts during simultaneous fMRI acquisition: implications for motion artefact correction. NeuroImage, 173, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage.2018.02.034

Motion artefacts (MAs) are induced within EEG data collected simultaneously with fMRI when the subject’s head rotates relative to the magnetic field. The effects of these artefacts have generally been ameliorated by removing periods of data during wh...

PLoS Computational Biology, 14(2), Article e1006007. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pcbi.1006007

Over long timescales, neuronal dynamics can be robust to quite large perturbations, such as changes in white matter connectivity and grey matter structure through processes including learning, aging, development and certain disease processes. One pos... Read More about A biophysical model of dynamic balancing of excitation and inhibition in fast oscillatory large-scale networks.

Cortical differences in diverticular disease and correlation with symptom reports (2018)
Journal Article

Background

Recent studies have shown that the brain of patients with gastrointestinal disease differ both structurally and functionally from that of controls. Highly somatizing diverticular disease (HSDD) patients were also shown to differ from l... Read More about Cortical differences in diverticular disease and correlation with symptom reports.

Variation in thermally induced taste response across thermal tasters (2018)
