Long-term coding of personal and universal associations underlying the memory web in the human brain (2016)
Journal Article
De Falco, E., Ison, M. J., Fried, I., & Quian Quiroga, R. (2016). Long-term coding of personal and universal associations underlying the memory web in the human brain. Nature Communications, 7, Article 13408. https://doi.org/10.1038/ncomms13408

Neurons in the medial temporal lobe (MTL), a critical area for declarative memory, have been shown to change their tuning in associative learning tasks. Yet, it is unclear how durable these neuronal representations are and if they outlast the executi...

Synchronization of fronto-parietal beta and theta networks as a signature of visual awareness in neglect (2016)
Journal Article
Yordanova, J., Kolev, V., Verleger, R., Heide, W., Grumbt, M., & Schürmann, M. (2017). Synchronization of fronto-parietal beta and theta networks as a signature of visual awareness in neglect. NeuroImage, 146, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage.2016.11.013

In the neglect syndrome, the perceptual deficit for contra-lesional hemi-space is increasingly viewed as a dysfunction of fronto-parietal cortical networks, the disruption of which has been described in neuroanatomical and hemodynamic studies. Here w... Read More about Synchronization of fronto-parietal beta and theta networks as a signature of visual awareness in neglect.

Impulsivity and self-harm in adolescence: a systematic review (2016)
Journal Article
Lockwood, J., Daley, D., Townsend, E., & Sayal, K. (2017). Impulsivity and self-harm in adolescence: a systematic review. European Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, 26(4), 387-402. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00787-016-0915-5

Research supports an association between impulsivity and self-harm, yet inconsistencies in methodology across studies have complicated understanding of this relationship. This systematic review examines the association between impulsivity and self-ha... Read More about Impulsivity and self-harm in adolescence: a systematic review.

Anticipated regret and organ donor registration: a randomised controlled trial (2016)
Journal Article
O'Carroll, R. E., Shepherd, L., Hayes, P. C., & Ferguson, E. (2016). Anticipated regret and organ donor registration: a randomised controlled trial. Health Psychology, 35(11), 1169-1177. https://doi.org/10.1037/hea0000363

Objective: To test whether simply asking people to rate the extent to which they anticipate feeling regret for not registering as an organ donor after death increases subsequent verified organ donor registration. Methods: 14,509 members of the genera... Read More about Anticipated regret and organ donor registration: a randomised controlled trial.

Investigating the feasibility of using transcranial direct current stimulation to enhance fluency in people who stutter (2016)
Journal Article
Chesters, J., Watkins, K. E., & Möttönen, R. (2017). Investigating the feasibility of using transcranial direct current stimulation to enhance fluency in people who stutter. Brain and Language, 164, 68-76. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bandl.2016.10.003

Developmental stuttering is a disorder of speech fluency affecting 1% of the adult population. Long-term reductions in stuttering are difficult for adults to achieve with behavioural therapies. We investigated whether a single session of transcranial... Read More about Investigating the feasibility of using transcranial direct current stimulation to enhance fluency in people who stutter.

Functional consequences of pre- and postsynaptic expression of synaptic plasticity (2016)
Preprint / Working Paper
Costa, R. P., Mizusaki, B. E., Jesper Sjöström, P., & van Rossum, M. C. W. Functional consequences of pre- and postsynaptic expression of synaptic plasticity

Growing experimental evidence shows that both homeostatic and Hebbian synaptic plasticity can be expressed presynaptically as well as postsynaptically. In this review, we start by discussing this evidence and methods used to determine expression loci...

Age-related differences in the structural complexity of subcortical and ventricular structures (2016)
Journal Article
Madan, C. R., & Kensinger, E. A. (2017). Age-related differences in the structural complexity of subcortical and ventricular structures. Neurobiology of Aging, 50, 87-95. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neurobiolaging.2016.10.023

It has been well established that the volume of several subcortical structures decreases in relation to age. Different metrics of cortical structure (e.g., volume, thickness, surface area, and gyrification) have been shown to index distinct character...
