The neuro-anatomical substrates of major depressive disorder (MDD) are still not well
understood, despite many neuroimaging studies over the past few decades. Here we present the …

The highly complex structure of the human brain is strongly shaped by genetic influences 1 .
Subcortical brain regions form circuits with cortical areas to coordinate movement 2 , …

This review summarizes the last decade of work by the ENIGMA (Enhancing NeuroImaging
Genetics through Meta Analysis) Consortium, a global alliance of over 1400 scientists across …

Falling asleep is paralleled by a loss of conscious awareness and reduced capacity to
process external stimuli. Little is known on sleep-associated changes of spontaneously …

The hippocampal formation is a brain structure integrally involved in episodic memory, spatial
navigation, cognition and stress responsiveness. Structural abnormalities in hippocampal …

Obtained from Contrasting Lucid versus Non-Lucid REM Sleep: A Combined EEG/fMRI Case …

Graph theoretical analysis of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) time series has
revealed a small-world organization of slow-frequency blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD…

Alterations in white matter (WM) microstructure have been implicated in the pathophysiology
of major depressive disorder (MDD). However, previous findings have been inconsistent, …

Intracranial volume reflects the maximally attained brain size during development, and remains
stable with loss of tissue in late life. It is highly heritable, but the underlying genes remain …

Subcortical brain structures are integral to motion, consciousness, emotions and learning.
We identified common genetic variation related to the volumes of the nucleus accumbens, …
