Metacognitive scaffolding boosts cognitive and neural benefits following executive attention training in children
(Developmental Science, 2019)
Interventions including social scaffolding and metacognitive strategies have been used in
educational settings to promote cognition. In addition, increasing evidence shows that
computerized process-based
training enhances ...
A probabilistic atlas of the human thalamic nuclei combining ex vivo MRI and histology
(NeuroImage, 2018)
The human thalamus is a brain structure that comprises numerous, highly specific nuclei. Since these nuclei are known to have different functions and to be connected to different areas of the cerebral cortex, it is of great ...
White matter microstructure of attentional networks predicts attention and consciousness functional interactions
(Brain Structure and Function, 2018)
Attention is considered as one of the pre-requisites of conscious perception. Phasic alerting and exogenous orienting improve conscious perception of near-threshold information through segregated brain networks. Using a ...
Retrospective Head Motion Estimation in Structural Brain MRI with 3D CNNs
(Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention − MICCAI 2017. Lecture Notes in Computer Science, 2017)
Head motion is one of the most important nuisance variables in neuroimaging, particularly in studies of clinical or special populations, such as children. However, the possibility of estimating motion in structural MRI is ...
How the human brain introspects about one's own episodes of cognitive control
(cortex, 2018)
Metacognition refers to our capacity to reflect upon our experiences, thoughts and actions. Metacognition processes are linked to cognitive control functions that allow keeping our actions on-task. But it is unclear how ...
Connectivity of Frontoparietal Regions Reveals Executive Attention and Consciousness Interactions
(Cerebral Cortex, 2019)
The executive control network is involved in the voluntary control of novel and complex situations. Solving conflict
situations or detecting errors have demonstrated to impair conscious perception of near-threshold stimuli. ...
Automated Segmentation of the Human Hippocampus Along Its Longitudinal Axis
(Human Brain Mapping, 2016)
The human hippocampal formation is a crucial brain structure for memory and cognitive function that is closely related to other subcortical and cortical brain regions. Recent neuroimaging studies have revealed differences ...
Simultaneous Bayesian correction of slab boundary artifacts and bias field for high resolution ex vivo MRI
(IEEE International Symposium on Biomedical Imaging (ISBI), 2016)
Multi-slab MRI overcomes some of the hardware limitations of today's clinical scanners (e.g., memory size), enabling the acquisition of ultra-high resolution ex vivo MRI of the whole human brain with high SNR efficiency. ...
Interactions between phasic alerting and consciousness in the fronto-striatal network
(Scientific Reports, 2016)
Only a small fraction of all the information reaching our senses can be the object of conscious report
or voluntary action. Although some models propose that different attentional states (top-down
amplification and ...
Encoding and inhibition of arbitrary episodic context with abstract concepts
(SPRINGER, 2022)
Context is critical for conceptual processing, but the mechanism underpinning its encoding and reinstantiation during abstract
concept processing is unclear. Context may be especially important for abstract concepts—we ...
