A Fundamental Distinction in Early Neural Processing of Implicit Social Interpr...
Madeira, Nuno; Martins, Ricardo Filipe Alves; Valente Duarte, João; Costa, Gabriel Nascimento Ferreira da; Macedo, António Ferreira deBackground: Social cognition impairment is a key phenomenon in serious mental disorders such as schizophrenia (SCZ) and bipolar disorder (BPD). Although genetic and neurobiological studies have suggested common neural correlates, here we hypothesized that a fundamental dissociation of social processing occurs at an early level in these conditions. Methods: Based on the hypothesis that key structures in the soci...
Effects of anodal multichannel transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) o...
Pereira, H Catarina; Sousa, Daniela; Simões, Marco; Martins, Ricardo Filipe Alves; Amaral, Carlos; Lopes, Vânia; Crisóstomo, JoanaRecent studies suggest that temporoparietal junction (TPJ) modulation can influence attention and social cognition performance. Nevertheless, no studies have used multichannel transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) over bilateral TPJ to estimate the effects on these neuropsychological functions. The project STIPED is using optimized multichannel stimulation as an innovative treatment approach for chroni...
Neural Responses of the Anterior Ventral Occipitotemporal Cortex in Development...
Rodrigues, Ana Pina; Rebola, José; Pereira, Marcelino; van Asselen, Marieke; Castelo Branco, Miguel de Sá e SousaFor the past 2 decades, neuroimaging studies in dyslexia have pointed toward a hypoactivation of the ventral occipitotemporal cortex (VOTC), a region that has been closely associated to reading through the extraction of a representation of words which is invariant to position, size, font or case. However, most of the studies are confined to the visual word form area (VWFA), while recent studies have demonstrate...
