Interesting new paper on reward and interoception from @rikepetzschner and colleagues osf.io/preprints/psyarxiv/be… - somatic marker theory updated for the computational era!

Rethinking reinforcement learning: The interoceptive origin of reward

Rewards play a crucial role in sculpting all motivated behavior. Traditionally, research on reinforcement learning has centered on how rewards guide learning and decision-making. Here, we examine the...

Very excited that our work with @lionel_rigoux on #OCD and the relationship between #compulsions and belief is out in @PLOSCompBiol now. Here is a 🧵 of the main findings: journals.plos.org/ploscompbi… @BrownUResearch @ETH_en @UZH_en

Beliefs, compulsive behavior and reduced confidence in control

Author summary Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) remains a perplexing condition for both scientists and healthcare professionals. A common theory posits that compulsive behaviors in OCD patients...

I finally finished writing my fun RL project during sabbatical in France. I first presented on this a year ago, but I'm still puzzled by the results, and what they mean for human reinforcement learning! Feedback welcome! osf.io/preprints/psyarxiv/he…

NEW PREPRINT! This has been in the making for a while and a project I am really excited about. We used a computational model to dissect how beliefs can lead to compulsive behavior. Thank you to my amazing co-authors @lionel_rigoux & Klaas Enno Stephan psyarxiv.com/s37ch/

Beliefs, compulsive behavior and reduced confidence in control

OCD has been conceptualized as a disorder arising from dysfunctional beliefs, such as overestimating threats or pathological doubts. Yet, how these beliefs lead to compulsions and obsessions remains...

How unexpected and exciting that after one year of moving the US I got the chance to meet Senator @SenJackReed and got the chance to represent the Brainstorm Program @CarneyInstitute and our pain app @SOMA_the_App!
Linda Yu@linda_q_yu2 Sep 2022
It was an honor to host @SenJackReed at the @CarneyInstitute and to showcase some of the groundbreaking neuroscience research here. We discussed the need to fund fellowships and research grants to early career researchers, especially women and minority groups...

I am fundraising for brain tumour research after shaving my hair off to give it to children who need it more than me after losing their own hair through cancer treatment. As a neuroscientist, I have worked and published on brain tumours and have seen their devastating effects 1/4
