A roadmap for building your scientific reputation on social media

Published in AboutOpen, 2022

The wide adoption of online media for scholarly purposes triggered a rapid increase in the access to scientific information. Here we briefly describe how this represented one of the foundations of the open access revolution and how this is connected to the development and circulation of alternative metrics for research outcomes.

Task-induced deactivation in diverse brain systems correlates with interindividual differences in distinct autonomic indices

Published in Neuropsychologia, 2018

In fMRI study, a continuous arithmetic task produced typical activation/deactivation patterns. We derived several autonomic (ANS) indices from cardiac and respiration data. Deactivation in different regions was predicted by different ANS indices. The findings can explain “failures to deactivate” in clinical and normative populations.
