The paper examines how asymmetry in subcortical brain structures relates to cortical oscillatory power in resting-state MEG data from healthy adults.

STEMorph creates a validated set of morphed emotional faces from angry to happy to study emotion recognition biases, showing strong correlation between morph levels and perceived emotion intensity.

OPM-FLUX provides a standardized analysis pipeline for OPM-MEG data, improving reproducibility and comparability across platforms and promoting consistent methodological practices.

The paper finds that leftward putamen asymmetry predicts pseudoneglect, a leftward attentional bias in healthy individuals, linking subcortical structure to spatial attention.

This study investigates how subcortical structures' hemispheric asymmetries predict alpha oscillation modulations during spatial attention tasks with varying perceptual loads.

A preregistered multimodal neuroimaging study across 256 human participants directly tests Integrated Information Theory against Global Neuronal Workspace Theory, confirming some predictions while revealing major empirical challenges for both.
