Spatiotemporal pattern of neural processing in the human auditory cortex

E Seifritz, F Esposito, F Hennel, H Mustovic, JG Neuhoff… - Science, 2002 - science.org
The principles that the auditory cortex uses to decipher a stream of acoustic information have
remained elusive. Neural responses in the animal auditory cortex can be broadly classified …

Differential sex-independent amygdala response to infant crying and laughing in parents versus nonparents

E Seifritz, F Esposito, JG Neuhoff, A Lüthi, H Mustovic… - Biological …, 2003 - Elsevier
BACKGROUND: Animal and human studies implicate forebrain neural circuits in maternal
behavior. Here, we hypothesized that human brain response to emotional stimuli relevant for …

[PDF][PDF] Neural processing of auditory looming in the human brain

E Seifritz, JG Neuhoff, D Bilecen, K Scheffler… - Current Biology, 2002 - cell.com
Acoustic intensity change, along with interaural, spectral, and reverberation information, is
an important cue for the perception of auditory motion [1–4]. Approaching sound sources …

Processing of temporal unpredictability in human and animal amygdala

…, WJ Perrig, K Scheffler, A Lüthi, E Seifritz - Journal of …, 2007 - Soc Neuroscience
The amygdala has been studied extensively for its critical role in associative fear conditioning
in animals and humans. Noxious stimuli, such as those used for fear conditioning, are …

Cortical and subcortical correlates of electroencephalographic alpha rhythm modulation

…, F Di Salle, J Hennig, E Seifritz - Journal of …, 2005 - journals.physiology.org
Neural correlates of electroencephalographic (EEG) alpha rhythm are poorly understood.
Here, we related EEG alpha rhythm in awake humans to blood-oxygen-level-dependent (BOLD…

Real-time fMRI neurofeedback: progress and challenges

…, U Herwig, S LaConte, D Linden, A Luft, E Seifritz… - Neuroimage, 2013 - Elsevier
In February of 2012, the first international conference on real time functional magnetic resonance
imaging (rtfMRI) neurofeedback was held at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology …

Single-dose psilocybin-assisted therapy in major depressive disorder: a placebo-controlled, double-blind, randomised clinical trial

…, A Schuldt, NM Rieser, K Zahoranszky, E Seifritz… - …, 2023 - thelancet.com
Background Psilocybin has been suggested as a novel, rapid-acting treatment for depression.
Two consecutive doses have been shown to markedly decrease symptom severity in an …

Modelling suicide and unemployment: a longitudinal analysis covering 63 countries, 2000–11

Background As with previous economic downturns, there has been debate about an association
between the 2008 economic crisis, rising unemployment, and suicide. Unemployment …

Independent component analysis of fMRI group studies by self-organizing clustering

…, S Comani, G Tedeschi, R Goebel, E Seifritz… - Neuroimage, 2005 - Elsevier
Independent component analysis (ICA) is a valuable technique for the multivariate data-driven
analysis of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data sets. Applications of ICA …

Psilocybin biases facial recognition, goal-directed behavior, and mood state toward positive relative to negative emotions through different serotonergic subreceptors

…, A Schmidt, R Bachmann, E Studerus, E Seifritz… - Biological …, 2012 - Elsevier
BACKGROUND: Serotonin (5-HT) 1A and 2A receptors have been associated with dysfunctional
emotional processing biases in mood disorders. These receptors further predominantly …
