The default mode network (DMN) plays a crucial role in sensory perception. The primary roles of the DMN include preparing for crises, predicting future events, and organizing information and memories. It comprises brain regions such as the medial prefrontal cortex, posterior cingulate cortex, precuneus, and inferior parietal lobule. For the five senses, including visual, auditory, olfactory,...

Increasing multiculturalism and globalization have increased the discrepancies between socially-shared norms and personal values. This study examined whether the association between Cultural Estrangement (CE) and resting-state functional connectivity (FC) of the default mode network (DMN) is moderated by self-esteem (SE). In total, 170 healthy Japanese adults (20–70 years) were recruited, 70 of...

The Default Mode Network (DMN) has been characterized since its formal description in 2001 as a resting-state network subserving autobiographical memory, social cognition, and prospective thinking. This paper challenges the foundational interpretive assumption of that characterization: that adult human DMN activity constitutes a normal or optimal cognitive baseline. We propose that the DMN, as...

As you read this sentence, you integrate meanings of individual words into complex, higher-order representations. In addition to the core language network (LN), this dynamic process recruits other domain-general networks such as the default mode network (DMN), with which it partially overlaps anatomically but segregates from functionally. To evaluate interactions between LN and DMN, we...

Preliminary evidence suggests that the combination of magnesium and ibogaine, an atypical psychedelic, may be a promising treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), opioid use disorder, and traumatic brain injury (TBI). The "mystical" experience elicited by ibogaine, which is characterized by feelings of awe, selflessness, and transcendence, is correlated with improvements in PTSD...
