Dr. Josh Balsters' work on the dynamics of functional brain networks published in Neuron
The research demonstrates that the human brain traverses between functional states that maximize either segregation into tight-knit communities or integration across otherwise disparate neural regions.
Dr. Ellen Jaspers from the NCM Lab discusses her recent work on mirror movements in children with cerebral palsy
In the Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology author podcast Ellen disusses her paper titled 'Do mirror movements relate to hand function and timing of the brain lesion in children with unilateral cerebral palsy?'.
Congratulations to Dr. Valerio Zerbi on receiving an ETH Seed Grant
NCM Lab member Dr. Valerio Zerbi received the funding for his work using novel imaging techniques in combination with genetic models to better understand how genetic risk factors converge to result in the same group of symptoms that lead to an Autism Spectrum Disorder diagnosis.
Dr. Ellen Jaspers and Prof. Nici Wenderoth tell their science story
Dr. Ellen Jaspers and Prof. Nici Wenderoth were interviewed by the EU Grants Access office and discuss how their partnership led to a successful Marie Curie Intra-European Fellowship application.
New work from the NCM Lab shows that adding noise to the brain can enhance sensory perception
Onno Van der Groen and Prof. Nici Wenderoth's work demonstrating that adding noise directly to the brain via transcranial random noise stimulation can enhance sensory perception has been published in the Journal of Neuroscience.
Marc Bächinger and Dr. Valerio Zerbi will speak at the Organization for Human Brain Mapping annual meeting
Congratulations to Marc Bächinger and Dr. Valerio Zerbi on receiving invitations to speak at this year's OHBM annual meeting in Geneva.
Congratulations to Dr. Marco Ganzetti on graduating from the NCM Lab
Marco Ganzetti has successfully defended his PhD thesis titled ‘Multimodal mapping of brain structural properties by combining T1- and T2-weighted MR imaging data’. Marco is currently undertaking a research internship at Roche where he is working on preclinical imaging methods.
