- Our new paper is out in Current Opinion in Behavioral Sciences; a perspective paper on the DMN, titled "Embodying the default mode network: self-related processing from an embodied perspective" www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
- The default mode network (DMN) is often described as the brain’s “self” network. But what kind of self are we talking about? Most studies focus on the conceptual or narrative self — we revisit it from an embodied perspective.
- Reposted by Choong-Wan (Wani) WooSuper proud of this collaboration with rockstar Ryan Raut - born out of playing in the sandbox in our last year of grad school! Multi-scale brain activity can be predicted from a simple measure of arousal like pupil diameter. Out with linear causality, in with dynamic systems to explain neurobiology
- Reposted by Choong-Wan (Wani) Woo🚨 New Preprint 🚨 Targeting intracranial electrical stimulation (ES) to network regions defined within individuals causes network-level effects By Cyr et al. *** Q: Can we use individualized network maps from precision fMRI to modulate a targeted network via intracranial ES? A: Yes! 🧵:
- Reposted by Choong-Wan (Wani) WooI’m elated to share our latest publication - out now in @natmentalhealth.nature.com! www.nature.com/articles/s44... - tour de force by @leahbanellis.bsky.social @brainandstomach.bsky.social and the rest of the VMP team!
- The final version (after proof) is now finally out. It provides a detailed spatio-temporal profile of brain mediation of the cue-stimulus integration in the pain context. We interpreted the results in terms of cortical hierarchy. journals.plos.org/plosbiology/...
