Recent advancements in neuroscience have unveiled new insights into the neural processes responsible for self-referential cognition. This research has brought particular attention to a critical neural ...

When I first heard the term "default mode network," I wondered if it had something to do with telephones or the internet. It doesn't. What it does have to do with is much more intriguing. The default ...

The default mode network (DMN) is a distributed set of interconnected brain regions that has long been associated with internally oriented cognition, such as remembering the past, thinking about the ...

A study published June 25 in the American Journal of Psychiatry provides new insights into a long-standing question in psychiatric research: What is the underlying neurobiological mechanism of ...

In line with other studies, during the reward-processing task, researchers observed decreased activation of the default mode network (DMN) and relative increased activation of other networks.

A new study published in Nature Neuroscience sheds light on the structural foundations of the brain’s default mode network, a system of regions long associated with internally focused thought, memory, ...
