This study maps neuroanatomical changes throughout human pregnancy, revealing widespread alterations in brain structure, including decreases in gray matter volume and increases in white matter integrity.
Depression, Depression (and Apathy), Neuroscience
This study reveals that individuals with depression exhibit an expanded frontostriatal salience network. The expansion is stable over time and may serve as a trait-like marker for depression risk.
Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT), Neuropsychiatry, Neuroscience, Psychiatry
This study investigates the neural mechanisms of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) in major depressive disorder (MDD). Findings suggest that increases in aperiodic activity, rather than traditional EEG slowing, better explain clinical improvements post-ECT.
