Multiple Brain Profiles May Underlie the Same Depressive Symptoms

A new study reveals that the same clinical signs of depression may stem from different brain profiles, highlighting both one-to-one and many-to-one brain-symptom mappings. Using brain imaging data from the UK Biobank, researchers found that even when patients experience similar symptoms, their underlying neurobiology may differ significantly.

Learning difficulties due to poor connectivity, not specific brain regions

Combining neuroimaging data with machine learning technology, researchers discover children with well-connected brain hubs have either very specific cognitive problems, such as poor listening skills, or no cognitive difficulties at all. Children with poorly connected hubs have widespread and severe cognitive difficulties.
