Post-stimulus undershoots, negative responses following cessation of stimulation, are widely observed in functional magnetic resonance (fMRI) blood oxygenation level dependent (BOLD) data. However, the debate surrounding whether the origin of this re... Read More about Post-stimulus fMRI and EEG responses: evidence for a neuronal origin hypothesised to be inhibitory.

Aim: While physical fatigue is known to arise in part from supraspinal mechanisms within the brain exactly how brain activity is modulated during fatigue is not well understood. Therefore, this study examined how typical neural oscillatory responses... Read More about The effect of physical fatigue on oscillatory dynamics of the sensorimotor cortex.

Movement induced modulation of the beta rhythm is one of the most robust neural oscillatory phenomena in the brain. In the preparation and execution phases of movement, a loss in beta amplitude is observed (movement related beta decrease (MRBD)). Thi...

Two spatiotemporally distinct value systems shape reward-based learning in the human brain (2015)
Journal Article

Avoiding repeated mistakes and learning to reinforce rewarding decisions is critical for human survival and adaptive actions. Yet, the neural underpinnings of the value systems that encode different decision-outcomes remain elusive. Here coupling sin...

Evidence that the negative BOLD response is neuronal in origin: a simultaneous EEG–BOLD–CBF study in humans (2014)
Journal Article
Mullinger, K. J., Mayhew, S. D., Bagshaw, A. P., Bowtell, R. W., & Francis, S. T. (2014). Evidence that the negative BOLD response is neuronal in origin: a simultaneous EEG–BOLD–CBF study in humans. NeuroImage, 94, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage.2014.02.029

Unambiguous interpretation of changes in the BOLD signal is challenging because of the complex neurovascular coupling that translates changes in neuronal activity into the subsequent haemodynamic response. In particular, the neurophysiological origin... Read More about Evidence that the negative BOLD response is neuronal in origin: a simultaneous EEG–BOLD–CBF study in humans.

Reference layer artefact subtraction (RLAS): A novel method of minimizing EEG artefacts during simultaneous fMRI (2013)

Large artefacts compromise EEG data quality during simultaneous fMRI. These artefact voltages pose heavy demands on the bandwidth and dynamic range of EEG amplifiers and mean that even small fractional variations in the artefact voltages give rise to...

EEG recordings made during concurrent fMRI are confounded by the pulse artefact (PA), which although smaller than the gradient artefact is often more problematic because of its variability over multiple cardiac cycles.
