From Brain Networks to Group Dynamics: Social and Affective Neuroscience of Mental Health从脑网络到群体动力:精神健康的社会与情感神经科学

Zhishan Jason Hu胡志善

I study complex networks in naturalistic settings, using graph theory and related approaches to characterize interpersonal relationships, brain function, cognition, and psychiatric symptoms, and to integrate individual cognitive development with group dynamics within a unified complex-network framework.致力于自然情境下的复杂网络分析。运用图论等方法,深入探索人际关系、大脑功能、认知过程及精神症状的网络特性,并致力于在统一的复杂网络框架下,整合个体认知发展与群体动力学模型。

Cortical t-maps of teacher–student interbrain synchrony under flipped classroom, lecture-based and control teaching

01 / 05npj Science of Learning · 2024 · Fig. 2图 2

Structured interaction between teacher and student in the flipped classroom enhances learning and interbrain synchrony

Structured teacher–student interaction in the flipped classroom improved learning and increased teacher–student interbrain synchrony in the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, and the synchrony tracked learning gains.翻转课堂中的结构化师生互动提升了学习效果,并增强了师生在左侧背外侧前额叶的脑间同步,同步程度与学习提升正相关。

Preschoolers’ deception related to prefrontal cortex activation: An fNIRS study

In 3-year-olds, stronger activation of the bilateral dorsolateral prefrontal cortex went with a greater tendency to deceive in a competitive hide-and-seek game.在竞争性捉迷藏游戏中,3 岁儿童双侧背外侧前额叶的激活越强,说谎倾向越高。

Topographic maps and HbO time courses showing reduced cortical activation after one week of repeated transcranial photobiomodulation

03 / 05IEEE Journal of Biomedical and Health Informatics · 2023 · Fig. 4图 4

Repeated Photobiomodulation Induced Reduction of Bilateral Cortical Hemodynamic Activation During a Working Memory Task in Healthy Older Adults

One week of transcranial photobiomodulation reduced working-memory activation across both hemispheres in healthy older adults; the reduction lasted up to two weeks and came with higher task accuracy.一周经颅光生物调控使健康老年人工作记忆任务中的双侧皮层激活下降,效应最长持续两周,同时任务正确率提高。

Brain regions and plots showing group-by-age interactions in right BNST functional connectivity during movie watching

04 / 05Asian Journal of Psychiatry · 2023 · Fig. 2图 2

Aberrant functional connectivity of the bed nucleus of the stria terminalis and its age dependence in children and adolescents with social anxiety disorder

During movie watching, children and adolescents with social anxiety disorder showed enhanced right BNST connectivity with the left amygdala and other regions at younger ages, which declined with age.观影任务中,社交焦虑障碍儿童青少年右侧终纹床核与左侧杏仁核等脑区的功能连接在低龄时增强,并随年龄下降。

Daily new COVID-19 cases in China with anxiety and depression symptom networks at the outbreak and after-peak stages

05 / 05Molecular Psychiatry · 2020 · Fig. 1图 1

Changes in network centrality of psychopathology symptoms between the COVID-19 outbreak and after peak

Psychomotor symptoms were central in the anxiety–depression network during the COVID-19 outbreak and remitted after the peak, when irritability and loss of energy became more central.新冠暴发期,精神运动性症状在焦虑—抑郁症状网络中居于核心;高峰过后有所缓解,易怒与精力不足的作用上升。

Profile个人简介

Networks across brains, minds, and groups从个体脑网络到人际与群体网络

I am an Assistant Research Fellow at Shanghai Mental Health Center and a master's supervisor in psychology at Shanghai Jiao Tong University. I apply graph theory and related network approaches to data collected in naturalistic settings — fNIRS, cognition, interpersonal interaction, and psychiatric symptoms — to understand how individual cognitive development and group dynamics shape mental health.我现任上海市精神卫生中心助理研究员、上海交通大学心理学硕士生导师。研究以图论等复杂网络方法分析自然情境下的数据,涵盖近红外脑成像、认知、人际互动与精神症状,探索个体认知发展与群体动力如何共同影响精神健康。
