1/ We can measure interoception in many aspects, but can we actually manipulate it? I’m excited to share our new study, which shows that blockade of peripheral beta-adrenergic pathways improves cardiac and respiratory interoception in unique ways! 🧵👇biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

🚨New Paper (Journal of Computational Neuroscience)! Nuevo paper! How do RNNs keep time for decisions? We show they use either integration or oscillatory dynamics—and that this temporal representation is distributed across the population, not localized to specific neurons👇Link

Massive study published yesterday in @NatureHumBehav for anyone in the neuropsychiatry/mind-brain-behavior spaces Direct in vivo evidence for how attention can modulate the immune system in ways that seem almost unbelievable nature.com/articles/s41562-0…

Our new paper in @Nature is now out. Psychedelics don’t simply disorder the brain. Using fMRI, EEG and AI in 62 psychedelic-naive adults, we found hidden, context-sensitive organisation beneath the apparent chaos -- strongest in people reporting more positive, profound experiences and a reduced sense of separation from the world. The paper: nature.com/articles/s41586-0… Huge congratulations to @dpsyc42 who led from the front, @novelli_leo and @MKhajehnejad were exceptional in performing highly sophisticated and complex data analyses and thanks the whole @ConnectPsi team and collaborators.

I recently had the pleasure of chatting with Julia Masselos, host of the SciComm Spectrum podcast, about all things science communication! 🔬 🤓 We discussed my role leading the blog team for @OHBM ComCom, and also my research on decision-making 🧠 youtube.com/watch?v=Vb07mpQ3…

Excited to share our latest paper, using gamified tasks for computational psychiatry developed by @TobiasUHauser and colleagues to explore brain behavior correlates in decision making!
1/ To explore or to exploit? I’m excited to share my new preprint with @TobiasUHauser and @micahgallen, correlating variations in cortical microstructures with individual differences in exploration-exploitation behaviours, using a gamified task! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
