Pathfinder project regarding generalization in ASD
Introduction How do autism spectrum disorder (ASD) shape the way we learn and generalise new information? Stacy Moppert has just wrapped up a Pathfinder-funded investigation that tackles this question head-on, pairing classic conditioning paradigms with monitoring the prefrontal cortex activity (PFC) via our Photon Cap functional-near-infrared-spectroscopy (fNIRS). Generalization is the ability to apply what you … <a href="https://www.cortivision.com/pathfinder-project-regarding-generalization-in-asd/">Continued</a>

Hyperscanning with the Photon Cap: The Role of Neural Synchrony During Social Interaction
Introduction In their study, Moffat et al. (2025) raised the question of increasing health risks caused by loneliness. Particularly, the study focused on the efficiency of intergenerational community programs bringing younger and older people together. It helps older adults stay physically, socially, and cognitively healthier, while also reducing younger adults’ negative stereotypes about aging. The … <a href="https://www.cortivision.com/hyperscanning-with-the-photon-cap-the-role-of-neural-synchrony-during-social-interaction/">Continued</a>

New poster using fNIRS Cortivision in clinical application
Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is one of the primary treatments for severe mood and psychotic disorders. The current practice of ECT refers to applied, brief general anesthesia, usually lasting less than 10 minutes. An electrical charge is then delivered to the brain via electrodes on the scalp, resulting in a generalized convulsive seizure, usually lasting between … <a href="https://www.cortivision.com/new-poster-using-fnirs-cortivision-in-clinical-application/">Continued</a>

New publication using fNIRS Cortivision concerning children
Cerebral palsy (CP) is one of the common neurological conditions. Affects children at the early stages of nervous system development. CP causes various neurological problems. Some significantly impair mobility and motor control. Recently, the use of robotic-assisted guided training (RAGT) to improve motor function through forced movement has gained increasing attention. RAGT can easily activate … <a href="https://www.cortivision.com/new-publication-using-fnirs-cortivision-concerning-children/">Continued</a>
