Introduction
I’m currently carrying on a PhD and RA position at the Friedrich-Schiller University, with the LANIC group (Autonomic Neuroscience, Imaging and Cognition Laboratory), at the Clinic for Psychosomatic and Psychotherapy. The research aim is to achieve a better understanding of the neuropsychological, structural and functional brain facets of anorexia nervosa with a Dynamic Functional Connectivity approach and Dynamic Causal Modeling approach (MRI, fMRI, DWI).

Introduction
Inhibition mechanisms are essential in daily life, helping individuals adapt to environmental demands. However, the causal interactions between large-scale functional networks involved in response inhibition remain poorly understood.
Methods
In this study, we examined the effective connectivity (EC) underlying inhibitory processes in...
The human brain possesses a unique ability to switch between patterns of functional connectivity, known as brain states, which are crucial for regulating biological, cognitive, and emotional processes. These states are linked to numerous neurological and neuropsychiatric conditions, however, their relationship to clinical symptoms of anorexia nervo...
Anorexia nervosa (AN) is linked to changes in autonomic function, but the specific neuroanatomical substrates of these changes are not well understood. In this study, we used diffusion-weighted imaging to examine white matter structure in the ventromedial prefrontal cortex–dorsal vagal complex (vmPFC-DVC) pathway, which is essential for autonomic r...
Body image is a core identity facet in anorexia nervosa (AN). Current literature outlines body image as a multidimensional construct, characterized by perceptual, cognitive, and emotional components, which explain how individuals perceive, think, and behave in relation to their body. The purpose of this scoping review is to uncover neuropsychologic...
