Journal ArticleDOI

Driving fast-spiking cells induces gamma rhythm and controls sensory responses

TL;DR: The timing of a sensory input relative to a gamma cycle determined the amplitude and precision of evoked responses and provided the first causal evidence that distinct network activity states can be induced in vivo by cell-type-specific activation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Meditation experience is associated with increased cortical thickness

TL;DR: Between-group differences in prefrontal cortical thickness were most pronounced in older participants, suggesting that meditation might offset age-related cortical thinning, and data provide the first structural evidence for experience-dependent cortical plasticity associated with meditation practice.
Journal ArticleDOI

Acupuncture modulates the limbic system and subcortical gray structures of the human brain: Evidence from fMRI studies in normal subjects

TL;DR: Functional magnetic resonance imaging was used to investigate the effects of acupuncture in normal subjects and to provide a foundation for future studies on mechanisms of acupuncture action in therapeutic interventions, suggesting that acupuncture needle manipulation modulates the activity of the limbic system and subcortical structures.
