It has been ascertained that the human brain is a complex system studied at multiple scales,
from neurons and microcircuits to macronetworks. The brain is characterized by a …

Driving fatigue seriously threatens traffic safety. In our work, the multifractal detrended
fluctuation analysis (MF-DFA) method is proposed to detect driver fatigue caused by driving …

The first chapter of this book introduces some history, philosophy, and basic concepts of
fractal geometry and discusses how the neurosciences can benefit from applying …

Fast and accurate diagnosis is critical for the triage and management of pneumonia,
particularly in the current scenario of a COVID-19 pandemic, where this pathology is a major …

The structure of the human brain changes in a variety of ways as we age. While a sizeable
literature has examined age-related differences in cortical thickness, and to a lesser degree …

Metrics of brain morphology are increasingly being used to examine inter-individual
differences, making it important to evaluate the reliability of these structural measures. Here …

The brain is a self-organizing system which displays self-similarities at different spatial and
temporal scales. Thus, the complexity of its dynamics, associated to efficient processing and …

Psychedelic drugs, such as psilocybin and LSD, represent unique tools for researchers
investigating the neural origins of consciousness. Currently, the most compelling theories of …

We investigate the degree to which neurons are fractal, the origin of this fractality, and its
impact on functionality. By analyzing three-dimensional images of rat neurons, we show the …

The study of active and healthy aging is a primary focus for social and neuroscientific
communities. Here, we move a step forward in assessing electrophysiological neuronal …
