Anil Kamat; Basiel Makled; Jack Norfleet; Steven D. Schwaitzberg; Xavier Intes; Suvranu De; Anirban Dutta – npj Science of Learning, 2022
Virtual reality (VR) simulator has emerged as a laparoscopic surgical skill training tool that needs validation using brain--behavior analysis. Therefore, brain network and skilled behavior relationship were evaluated using functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) from seven experienced right-handed surgeons and six right-handed medical…

Bettoni, Roberta; Addabbo, Margaret; Bulf, Hermann; Macchi Cassia, Viola – Child Development, 2021
Infant research is providing accumulating evidence that number-space mappings appear early in development. Here, a Posner cueing paradigm was used to investigate the neural mechanisms underpinning the attentional bias induced by nonsymbolic numerical cues in 9-month-old infants (N = 32). Event-related potentials and saccadic reaction time were…

Enrichment in rodents affects brain structure, improves behavioral performance, and is neuroprotective. Similarly, in humans, according to the cognitive reserve concept, enriched experience is functionally protective against neuropathology. Despite this parallel, the ability to translate rodent studies to human clinical situations is limited. This…
