Limbic-visual attenuation to crying faces underlies neglectful mothering
(Scientific Reports, 2019)
Neglectful mothering is one of the most common forms of childhood maltreatment, involving a severe disregard of the child’s needs, yet little is known about its neural substrate. A child’s needs are usually conveyed by ...
Neglectful maternal caregiving involves altered brain volume in empathy-related areas
(Development and Psychopathology, 2020)
The maternal brain undergoes adaptations to sensitive caregiving that are critical for infant well-being.We investigated structural alterations
associated with neglectful caregiving and their effects on mother–child ...
Distinctive Frontal and Occipitotemporal Surface Features in Neglectful Parenting
(Brain sciences, 2021)
Although the brain signatures of adaptive human parenting are well documented, the cortical features associated with maladaptive caregiving are underexplored. We investigated whether cortical thickness and surface area ...
Spatiotemporal dynamics of postoperative functional plasticity in patients with brain tumors in language areas
(Brain and Language, 2020)
Postoperative functional neuroimaging provides a unique opportunity to investigate the neural mechanisms that
facilitate language network reorganization. Previous studies in patients with low grade gliomas (LGGs) in ...
Tracing the interplay between syntactic and lexical features: fMRI evidence from agreement comprehension
(NeuroImage, 2018)
The current fMRI study was designed to investigate whether the processing of different gender-related cues embedded in nouns affects the computation of agreement
dependencies and, if so, where this possible interaction ...
MULTIMAP: Multilingual picture naming test for mapping eloquent areas during awake surgeries
(Behavior Research Methods, 2021)
Picture naming tasks are currently the gold standard for identifying and preserving language-related areas during awake brain
surgery. With multilingual populations increasing worldwide, patients frequently need to be ...
What Can Glioma Patients Teach Us about Language (Re)Organization in the Bilingual Brain: Evidence from fMRI and MEG
(Cancers, 2021)
Recent evidence suggests that the presence of brain tumors (e.g., low-grade gliomas)
triggers language reorganization. Neuroplasticity mechanisms called into play can transfer linguistic
functions from damaged to healthy ...
Disentangling meaning in the brain: Left temporal involvement in agreement processing
(Cortex, 2017)
Sentence comprehension is successfully accomplished by means of a form-to-meaning mapping procedure that relies on the extraction of morphosyntactic information from the input and its mapping to higher-level semantic–discourse ...
Oscillatory and Structural Signatures of Language Plasticity in Brain Tumor Patients: a Longitudinal Study
(Wiley, 2021-04-15)
Recent evidence suggests that damage to the language network triggers its functional reorganization. Yet, the spectro-temporal fingerprints of this plastic rearrangement and its relation to anatomical changes is less well ...
Grey Matter Reshaping of Language-Related Regions Depends on Tumor Lateralization
(MDPI, 2023)
A brain tumor in the left hemisphere can decrease language laterality as assessed through fMRI. However, it remains unclear whether or not this decreased language laterality is associated with a structural reshaping of the ...
