How do psychedelics temporarily change brain network connectivity?

Psychedelics appear to temporarily increase cross talk between large-scale brain networks. An international mega-analysis of 11 resting-state fMRI datasets in Nature Medicine found stronger connectivity between higher-order association systems, such as the default mode and frontoparietal networks, and sensory or motor networks including visual, somatomotor, and attention systems. This pattern points to a reconfiguration rather […]

How do psychedelics temporarily alter cooperation among brain networks?

Psychedelics appear to temporarily reconfigure cooperation among large-scale brain networks by boosting cross-talk between them. During acute effects, higher association systems like the default mode and frontoparietal networks show stronger coupling with visual, somatomotor, and attention networks, indicating a more integrated yet differently organized state. This picture comes from an international mega-analysis of 11 resting-state […]
