On the time-course of functional connectivity: theory of a dynamic progression of concussion effects

The current literature presents a discordant view of mild traumatic brain injury and its effects on the human brain. This dissonance has often been attributed to heterogeneities in study populations, etiology, acuteness, experimental paradigms, …

Disruption of function: Neurophysiological markers of cognitive deficits in retired football players

Objective: Recent studies demonstrate that sports-related concussions can have negative consequences on long-term brain health. The goal of the present study was to determine whether retired Canadian Football League (CFL) athletes with a history of …

Electrophysiological evidence for the integral nature of tone in Mandarin spoken word recognition

Current models of spoken word recognition have been predominantly based on studies of Indo-European languages. As a result, less is known about the recognition processes involved in the perception of tonal languages (e.g., Mandarin Chinese), and the …

From Group-Level Statistics to Single-Subject Prediction: Machine Learning Detection of Concussion in Retired Athletes

There has been increased effort to understand the neurophysiological effects of concussion aimed to move diagnosis and identification beyond current subjective behavioral assessments that suffer from poor sensitivity. Recent evidence suggests that …
