Publications
The out-of-body experience: disturbed self-processing at the temporo-parietal junctionOlaf Blanke
Functional Brain Mapping Laboratory, Department of Neurology, University Hospital, Geneva, Switzerland
Neuroscientist 11:16-24. 2005....
Neural basis of embodiment: distinct contributions of temporoparietal junction and extrastriate body areaShahar Arzy
Laboratory of Cognitive Neuroscience, Brain Mind Institute, , 1015 Lausanne, Switzerland
J Neurosci 26:8074-81. 2006..Collectively, these data show that distributed brain activity at the EBA and TPJ as well as their timing are crucial for the coding of the self as embodied and as spatially situated within the human body...
Self in time: imagined self-location influences neural activity related to mental time travelShahar Arzy
Laboratory of Cognitive Neuroscience, Brain Mind Institute, Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne, 1015 Lausanne, Switzerland
J Neurosci 28:6502-7. 2008....
Subjective mental time: the functional architecture of projecting the self to past and futureShahar Arzy
Brain Mind Institute, Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne, Lausanne, Switzerland
Eur J Neurosci 30:2009-17. 2009..These behavioural and neural data suggest that self-projection in time is a fundamental aspect of MT, relying on neural structures encoding memory, mental imagery and self...
Antiepileptic drugs modify power of high EEG frequencies and their neural generatorsS Arzy
Department of Neurology, University Hospital, Geneva, Switzerland
Eur J Neurol 17:1308-12. 2010..The clinical and molecular effects of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) have been extensively investigated. Much less is known about their effects on human electrophysiology...
The mental time line: an analogue of the mental number line in the mapping of life eventsShahar Arzy
Laboratory of Cognitive Neuroscience, Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne, 1015 Lausanne, Switzerland
Conscious Cogn 18:781-5. 2009..We argue that the present time-line data are comparable to the spatial mapping of numbers along the mental number line and that such spatial maps are a fundamental basis for cognition...
Schizotypal perceptual aberrations of time: correlation between score, behavior and brain activityShahar Arzy
Laboratory of Cognitive Neuroscience, Brain Mind Institute, Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne, Lausanne, Switzerland
PLoS ONE 6:e16154. 2011....
The 'intrinsic' system in the human cortex and self-projection: a data driven analysisShahar Arzy
Department of Neurology, Hadassah Hebrew University Hospital, Jerusalem
Neuroreport 21:569-74. 2010..These data suggest that the first system relates to external stimulus processing ('extrinsic') and the latter one relates to processing of the 'internal milieu' of body and self ('intrinsic')...
Misleading one detail: a preventable mode of diagnostic error?Shahar Arzy
Department of Neurology, Hadassah Hebrew University Hospital, Jerusalem, Israel
J Eval Clin Pract 15:804-6. 2009..The presence of a single misleading detail may lead clinicians down a cognitive and actual path toward an incorrect diagnosis...
Primary progressive aphasia: quantitative analysisShahar Arzy
Department of Neurology, Hadassah Hebrew University Hospital, Jerusalem, Israel
Neurology 71:145-6. 2008
Duration and not strength of activation in temporo-parietal cortex positively correlates with schizotypyShahar Arzy
Laboratory of Cognitive Neuroscience, Brain Mind Institute, Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne, Lausanne, Switzerland
Neuroimage 35:326-33. 2007..We argue that this might reflect local pathology, pathologies in cortico-cortical connections and/or re-entry of top-down processing...
Psychogenic amnesia and self-identity: a multimodal functional investigationS Arzy
Department of Neurology, Hadassah Hebrew University Medical Center, Jerusalem, Israel
Eur J Neurol 18:1422-5. 2011..While the first is generally attributed to limbic dysfunction, the latter might be related to posterior parietal cortex...
Mental time in amnesia: evidence from bilateral medial temporal damage before and after recoveryShahar Arzy
Department of Neurology, Hadassah Hebrew University Medical Center, Jerusalem, Israel
Cogn Neuropsychol 26:503-10. 2009..We discuss our findings with respect to the relations between episodic memory and medial-temporal structures with self-projection in time to past and future...
Deficient mental own-body imagery in a neurological patient with out-of-body experiences due to cannabis useLeila S Overney
Laboratory of Cognitive Neuroscience, Brain Mind Institute, Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne EPFL, 1015 Lausanne, Switzerland
Cortex 45:228-35. 2009..Based on these data we propose an extended neurological model for own-body illusions including multisensory and sensorimotor mechanisms, cannabis consumption, and cortical and subcortical processing...
Induction of an illusory shadow personShahar Arzy
Laboratory of Cognitive Neuroscience, , Lausanne 1015, Switzerland
Nature 443:287. 2006..These perceptions may have been due to a disturbance in the multisensory processing of body and self at the temporoparietal junction...
Why revelations have occurred on mountains? Linking mystical experiences and cognitive neuroscienceShahar Arzy
Laboratory of Cognitive Neuroscience, Brain Mind Institute, Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne EPFL, Lausanne, Switzerland
Med Hypotheses 65:841-5. 2005..Cognitive neurosciences, in turn, might profit from the research of mysticism in their endeavor to further our understanding of mechanisms of corporeal awareness and self consciousness...
Neural mechanisms of embodiment: asomatognosia due to premotor cortex damageShahar Arzy
Laboratory of Cognitive Neuroscience, Brain-Mind Institute, , Lausanne, Switzerland
Arch Neurol 63:1022-5. 2006..CONCLUSION: Asomatognosia may also be associated with damage to the right premotor cortex...
