TL;DR: It is concluded that correlation of low frequency fluctuations, which may arise from fluctuations in blood oxygenation or flow, is a manifestation of functional connectivity of the brain.

Abstract: An MRI time course of 512 echo-planar images (EPI) in resting human brain obtained every 250 ms reveals fluctuations in signal intensity in each pixel that have a physiologic origin. Regions of the sensorimotor cortex that were activated secondary to hand movement were identified using functional MRI methodology (FMRI). Time courses of low frequency (< 0.1 Hz) fluctuations in resting brain were observed to have a high degree of temporal correlation (P < 10(-3)) within these regions and also with time courses in several other regions that can be associated with motor function. It is concluded that correlation of low frequency fluctuations, which may arise from fluctuations in blood oxygenation or flow, is a manifestation of functional connectivity of the brain.

The Brain's Default Network Anatomy, Function, and Relevance to Disease
TL;DR: Past observations are synthesized to provide strong evidence that the default network is a specific, anatomically defined brain system preferentially active when individuals are not focused on the external environment, and for understanding mental disorders including autism, schizophrenia, and Alzheimer's disease.
The human brain is intrinsically organized into dynamic, anticorrelated functional networks
Michael D. Fox,Abraham Z. Snyder,Justin L. Vincent,Maurizio Corbetta,David C. Van Essen,Marcus E. Raichle +5 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that both task-driven neuronal responses and behavior are reflections of this dynamic, ongoing, functional organization of the brain, featuring the presence of anticorrelated networks in the absence of overt task performance.

TL;DR: In this paper, the organization of networks in the human cerebrum was explored using resting-state functional connectivity MRI data from 1,000 subjects and a clustering approach was employed to identify and replicate networks of functionally coupled regions across the cerebral cortex.

TL;DR: Two distinct networks typically coactivated during functional MRI tasks are identified, anchored by dorsal anterior cingulate and orbital frontoinsular cortices with robust connectivity to subcortical and limbic structures, and an “executive-control network” that links dorsolateral frontal and parietal neocortices.

Formation and inactivation of endogenous cannabinoid anandamide in central neurons.
V. Di Marzo,Angelo Fontana,Hugues Cadas,S. Schinelli,Guido Cimino,J.-C. Schwartz,Daniele Piomelli +6 more
TL;DR: It is reported that anandamide is produced in and released from cultured brain neurons in a calcium ion-dependent manner when the neurons are stimulated with membrane-depolarizing agents, indicating that multiple biochemical pathways may participate in an andamide formation in brain tissue.
University–industry linkages in the UK: What are the factors underlying the variety of interactions with industry?
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the different channels through which academic researchers interact with industry and the factors that influence the researchers' engagement in a variety of interactions, and argued that by paying greater attention to the broad range of knowledge transfer mechanisms, policy initiatives could contribute to building the researchers skills necessary to integrate the worlds of scientific research and application.

Optogenetic stimulation of a hippocampal engram activates fear memory recall
Xu Liu,Steve Ramirez,Petti T. Pang,Corey B. Puryear,Arvind Govindarajan,Karl Deisseroth,Susumu Tonegawa +6 more
TL;DR: It is shown in mice that optogenetic reactivation of hippocampal neurons activated during fear conditioning is sufficient to induce freezing behaviour, and this findings indicate that activating a sparse but specific ensemble of hippocampusal neurons that contribute to a memory engram is sufficient for the recall of that memory.
