A New Role for Diffusion MRI in Treating Anxiety and Depression
Anxiety disorders and depression are widespread among adolescents in the U.S., affecting as many as one in four 13 to 18 year olds. Determining the best course of treatment can be difficult, though, as we still don’t fully understand the biology underlying them. Now, using cutting-edge brain i...

‘It’s All in the Eyes’: The role of the amygdala in the experience and perception of fear
Researchers have long believed that the amygdala, an almond-shaped structure in the brain, is central to the experience and perception of fear. Studies initiated in the 1990s of a patient with a rare condition affecting the amygdala initially seemed to support this conclusion. However, as the MGH...
The (Totally True) Legend of Thomas Witzel and the Ultrahigh-field MRI Quench
Sometimes we get the hero we need. In the summer of 2017, the 7T MRI scanner at the MGH Martinos Center suffered a quench: a sudden loss of superconductivity resulting in a complete loss of the scanner’s magnetic field. In short, it broke. Without a magnetic field, the instrument was inoperabl...

Early Screening of ASD With a New Eye-tracking Paradigm
Studies have shown that early diagnosis and intervention significantly impact the prognosis of individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD): the earlier the detection and diagnosis, the better the prognosis and functional status later in life. Currently, the average age of diagnosis is approxi...
