Multivariate resting-state functional connectivity predicts response to cognitive behavioral therapy in obsessive – compulsive disorder
Posted on February 13, 2018
Authors: Nicco Reggente, Teena D. Moody, Francesca Morfini, Courtney Sheen, Jesse Rissman, Joseph O’Neill and Jamie D. Feusner Article: PDF | Supporting Information Plain English: In this work, we collected Resting-State fMRI data from patients with OCD before they engaged in 4 weeks of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). We calculated functional connectivity within the Default […]
Shared and distinct contributions of rostrolateral prefrontal cortex to analogical reasoning and episodic memory retrieval
Posted on January 20, 2016 Leave a Comment
Andrew Westphal, Nicco Reggente, Kaori Ito, Jesse Rissman Abstract: Rostrolateral prefrontal cortex (RLPFC) is widely appreciated to support higher cognitive functions, including analogical reasoning and episodic memory retrieval. However, these tasks have typically been studied in isolation, and thus it is unclear whether they involve common or distinct RLPFC mechanisms. Here, we introduce a novel […]

Westphal, A.J., Monti, M.M., Reggente, N., Yazdanshenas, O., & Rissman, J. Andrew Westphal presented this work at an SfN Nanosymposium in Washington D.C (2014) SfN 2014 Abstract: The act of retrieving a memory for a specific episode of one’s past requires the coordination of brain networks involved in controlling access to mnemonic contents and representing […]

Westphal, A.J., Reggente, N., Ito, K., Fortuna, W., & Rissman, J. HBM_2013_Poster HBM 2013 Abstract Resting state fMRI connectivity analyses have identified a number of distinct functional brain networks, including the fronto-parietal task control network (FPTCN), the dorsal attention network (DAN), and the default mode network (DMN) (e.g., Vincent et al., 2008, Power et al., […]
Shared and distinct contributions of rostral prefrontal cortex to analogical reasoning and episodic memory retrieval: Insights from fMRI functional connectivity and multivariate pattern analyses

Westphal, A.J., Reggente, N., Nawabi, Y., & Rissman, J. CNS_2013_Poster CNS 2013 Abstract The rostral prefrontal cortex (RPFC), positioned at the apex of the prefrontal processing hierarchy, has been implicated in a diverse array of high-level cognitive processes including analogical reasoning and episodic memory retrieval—tasks that may share demands for relational integration. However, because […]
