We also validate our results using intracranial human EEG data recorded from human participants with epilepsy during presurgical monitoring. Recently, my research focus expanded into u...
‘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...
Understanding the Patient-Clinician Relationship with ‘Hyperscanning’ fMRI
The quality of the patient-clinician relationship is widely held to impact a patient’s response to treatment. Exactly how, though, has long remained a mystery. In a study reported in October 2020, Martinos Center researchers began to explore the questions of which parts of the brain and which typ...
