Editorial: Dynamic Functional Connectivity in Neuropsychiatric Disorders: Methods and Applications

Resting-state functional connectivity in neuropsychiatric disorders.

PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review considers recent advances in the application of resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging to the study of neuropsychiatric disorders. RECENT FINDINGS Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging is a relatively novel technique that has several potential advantages over task-activation functional magnetic resonance imaging in terms of its clinical...

Evaluation of Model-Based Methods in Estimating Dynamic Functional Connectivity of Brain Regions

Today, neuroscientists are interested in discovering human brain functions through brain networks. In this regard, the evaluation of dynamic changes in functional connectivity of the brain regions by using functional magnetic resonance imaging data has attracted their attention. In this paper, we focus on two model-based approaches, called the exponential weighted moving average model and the d...

Editorial: 5-HT2A/2B/2C Receptors, Memory, and Neuropsychiatric Disorders

It is very well known that memory formation and forgetting represent important cognitive functions modulated by several neurotransmitters, including serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) (e. How does the brain become dysfunctional? Such a question has intrigued neuroscientists for many years. Over recent decades, neuroscience research has shed light on this complex issue and growing evidence is...

Novel experimental models and paradigms for neuropsychiatric disorders: Editorial.

Neuropsychiatric disorders are increasingly becoming the major health burden in modern society, primarily due to our limited understanding of these diseases, and the lack of sufficient treatments. However, even with the latest technological advances, clinical research still has its limitations (e.g., in terms of controllability of the environment or accessibility of tissue samples). Therefore, ...
