He moved to the United States to do his psychiatry residency at Johns Hopkins and served as chief resident. • • • Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is hands-down the most controversial treat- ment in modern psychiatry. No other treatment has generated such a fierce and polarized public debate. Critics of ECT say it’s a crude tool of psychiatric coercion; advocates say it is the most effective, lifesaving psychiatric treatment that exists today. The truth is that modern-day ECT is a far cry from the old methods that earned ECT its sinister reputation. For many of you reading this, the thought of ECT conjures up images of the 1975 movie “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest,” with Jack Nicholson thrashing about, forced against his will to endure painful, violent seizures.

  • Thinking About Actions: the Neural Substrates of Person Knowledge
    Person Knowledge 1 Running Head: Person Knowledge Thinking About Actions: The Neural Substrates of Person Knowledge Malia F. Mason, Jane F. Banfield, and C. Neil Macrae Dartmouth College Address Correspondence To: Malia Mason Columbia Business School 720 Uris Hall New York, NY 10027 Email: [email protected] Phone: 212.854.1070 Person Knowledge 2 Abstract Despite an extensive literature on the neural substrates of semantic knowledge, how person-related information is represented in the brain has yet to be elucidated. Accordingly, in the present study we used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to investigate the neural correlates of person knowledge. Focusing on the neural substrates of action knowledge, participants reported whether or not a common set of behaviors could be performed by people or dogs. While dogs and people are capable of performing many of the same actions (e.g., run, sit, bite), we surmised that the representation of this knowledge would be associated with distinct patterns of neural activity. Specifically, person judgments were expected to activate cortical areas associated with theory of mind (ToM) reasoning. The results supported this prediction. Whereas action-related judgments about dogs were associated with activity in various regions, including the occipital and parahippocampal gyri; identical judgments about people yielded activity in areas of prefrontal cortex, notably the right middle and medial frontal gyri. These findings suggest that person knowledge may be functionally dissociable from comparable information about other animals, with action-related judgments about people recruiting neural activity that is indicative of ToM reasoning. Key Words: Action Knowledge; fMRI; Social Cognition; Theory of Mind; Mentalizing.

  • Interference Resolution: Insights from a Meta-Analysis of Neuroimaging Tasks

WAGER Columbia University, New York, New York AND JOHN JONIDES University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan A quantitative meta-analysis was performed on 47 neuroimaging studies involving tasks purported to require the resolution of interference. The tasks included the Stroop, flanker, go/no-go, stimulus–response compatibil- ity, Simon, and stop signal tasks. Peak density-based analyses of these combined tasks reveal that the anterior cingulate cortex, dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, inferior frontal gyrus, posterior parietal cortex, and anterior insula may be important sites for the detection and/or resolution of interference. Individual task analyses reveal differential patterns of activation among the tasks. We propose that the drawing of distinctions among the pro- cessing stages at which interference may be resolved may explain regional activation differences. Our analyses suggest that resolution processes acting upon stimulus encoding, response selection, and response execution may recruit different neural regions. The need to select information among competing al- shows the activations arising just from the Stroop task ternatives is ubiquitous.

How- ever, the relationship between imitation and interhemispheric inhibition (IHI) remains unclear. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) can be used to investigate IHI. In this study, the modifica- tion effects of IHI resulting from mirror neuron system (MNS) activation during different imitations are addressed. We measured IHI between homologous primary motor cortex (M1) by analyzing the ipsilateral silent period (iSP) evoked by single-pulse focal TMS during imitation and analyzed the respective IHI modulation during and after different patterns of imitation. Our main results showed that throughout anatomical imitation, significant time-course changes of iSP duration through the Citation: Tian, D.; Izumi, S.-i.; experiment were observed in both directions. iSP duration declined from the pre-imitation time Suzuki, E.

We would also like to extend a thank you to our teachers Michael Inglis and Annmarie O’Brien, for supervising us throughout our three years in Science Research and making them such an enlightening experience. Finally, we would like to thank all of the students that participated in our study, whose time and effort was greatly appreciated. Abstract Title: Lucid Dreaming and the Prefrontal Cortex III Name and address: Georgia Minkoff and Grace Boyar School/city/state: Briarcliff High School, Briarcliff Manor, NY 10510 Teacher: Mr. Michael Inglis and Ms. Annmarie O’Brien Mentor: Dr. Peter T. Morgan Scientific discipline: Neurological Science Objectives The purpose of this study is to prove that ventromedial but not the dorsolateral prefrontal cortical functions will prove one’s ability to lucid dream. The precuneus is also tested to distinguish lucid from non-lucid dreamers. Each part of the brain listed above is correlated to cognitive behaviors (i.e.; decision making, risk taking, reaction time, and memory). These functions are observed throughout the study to test their degree of enhancement. Methods Each participant endured a week of intense lucid dreaming induction treatment. They were administered questionnaires, assessments, cognitive computer tasks, and a dream journal. While the questionnaires were only completed once, computer tasks were done at the beginning and end of the study to compare the development of the behaviors tested.

How others’ appraisal is subjectively interpreted to change Published: xx xx xxxx state self-esteem is unknown, and the neural underpinnings of this process remain to be elucidated. We hypothesized that changes in state self-esteem are represented by the mentalizing network, which is modulated by interactions with regions involved in the subjective interpretation of others’ appraisal. To test this hypothesis, we conducted task-based and resting-state fMRI. Participants were repeatedly presented with their reputations, and then rated their pleasantness and reported their state self- esteem. To evaluate the individual sensitivity of the change in state self-esteem based on pleasantness (i.e., the subjective interpretation of reputation), we calculated evaluation sensitivity as the rate of change in state self-esteem per unit pleasantness. Evaluation sensitivity varied across participants, and was positively correlated with precuneus activity evoked by reputation rating. Resting-state fMRI revealed that evaluation sensitivity was positively correlated with functional connectivity of the precuneus with areas activated by negative reputation, but negatively correlated with areas activated by positive reputation. Thus, the precuneus, as the part of the mentalizing system, serves as a gateway for translating the subjective interpretation of reputation into state self-esteem.

  • Electroconvulsive Therapy
    The Return of Electroshock Therapy Can Sarah Lisanby help an infamous form of depression treatment shed its brutal reputation? John Cuneo DAN HURLEY DECEMBER 2015 ISSUE | HEALTH Like The Atlantic? Subscribe to The Atlantic Daily, our free weekday email newsletter. Email SIGN UP NE MORNING in early October, on her final day as the chair of the O psychiatry and behavioral-sciences department at the Duke University School of Medicine, Sarah Hollingsworth Lisanby ushered me over to a display case in one of the department’s conference rooms. There, behind glass, sits the world’s only museum, such as it is, of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), or what most people still call “shock therapy.” The oldest artifacts on display, some of which are made of polished wood and brass, date to the late 19th century, when electrical stimulation was promoted as a cure for a host of ailments. A mid-20th- century relic labeled ELECTRO SHOCK THERAPY EQUIPMENT features a red button in the center helpfully marked START SHOCK. In the popular imagination, ECT—the application to the scalp of an electrical current strong enough to induce a brief seizure—is an archaic practice that might as well be relegated to a museum collection. But according to Lisanby and other leading researchers, the modern version of ECT, far from outmoded, is the most effective therapy available for severe, treatment-resistant depression and bipolar disorder (and even sometimes, when deployed early enough, schizophrenia). No one knows exactly why ECT works—there are many theories—but numerous studies have established that it does work: The vast majority of severely depressed, even suicidal, patients feel much better after a course of treatment.

Abstract: The insular cortex (IC) and cingulate cortex (CC) are critically involved in pain perception. Previously we demonstrated that fibromyalgia (FM) patients have greater connectivity between the insula and default mode network at rest, and that changes in the degree of this connectivity were associated with changes in the intensity of ongoing clinical pain. In this study we more thoroughly evaluated the degree of resting-state connectivity to multiple regions of the IC in individuals with FM and healthy controls. We also investigated the relationship between connectivity, experimental pain, and current clinical chronic pain. Functional connectivity was assessed using resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging in 18 FM patients and 18 age- and sex-matched healthy controls using predefined seed regions in the anterior, middle, and posterior IC.
