Exercise is a brain drug. Here’s the biology behind it New review in Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience breaks down how exercise boosts brain BDNF, the key molecule for learning and memory. What matters most: 1. Exercise reliably increases brain BDNF, a driver of

Shame is a powerful emotion rooted in secrecy, often making us feel damaged and unworthy. Its impact spans psychological, neurocognitive, sociocultural and institutional domains. At @TheBJPsych editorial ( https://t.co/BzqQIMbgrK), we reframe harmful shame as a health target

How distributed is the brain-wide network that is recruited for cognition? A Perspective by Matthew C. Rosen & David J. Freedman https://t.co/QGOd5SIIqy

Tsang et al. reviewed 13 studies combining TMS with intracranial EEG in humans and non-human primates. They found that stimulation can rapidly alter neuronal activity and connectivity, with some effects persisting for extended periods. https://t.co/3cvW3JzboR

#FiberDataHub (🌐 https://t.co/VNmcXxfZ7V) has passed 50,000 pre-processed dMRI subjects All standardized and ready for tractography, connectome mapping, and cross-study exploration — no more hours lost to topup/eddy! download it using #dsistudio or using python directly.

New paper: Working memory readout varies with frontal theta rhythms. A theta traveling wave swept across the frontal cortex like radar, modulating working memory performance. Because cognition is rhythmic. https://t.co/nmCcINu3ef #neuroscience @MIT_Picower @mitbrainandcog @MIT

New online! Non-invasive brain stimulation: current and future applications in neurology https://t.co/OTUNrrT0bc

@JRBneuropsiq I'm co-author on a paper on this (with Buzsaki and Peyrache). "The emergence of cognition from action". Roughly, imagined action, frequently followed by action selection. Hidden layer upon which imaged action takes place

The word "cognition" has its origins in classical terms related to the concept of knowing. Yet its use is often debated in psychology, psychiatry, and neuroscience. This collection of short essays addresses the central question: What is cognition? https://t.co/EVzurqEUS5

Decoding the human thalamus: iEEG and stimulation data now shared with anyone interested: https://t.co/vakaVEhGWA. Thanks to @VivekBuchMD for great collaboration and for taking us deep inside the human thalamus —what a ride! Also check https://t.co/PAfDFF5ifn in the same issue.

An A.I. model that predicts the course of Alzheimer's disease

1/11 Excited to share our @Naturestudy led by @Leon_Oo1 @csabaorban @ZShaoshi https://t.co/z51pMIGR5R It is well-known that AI performance scales with logarithm of sample size (Kaplan, McCandlish 2020), but in many domains, sample size can be # participants or # measurements...

1/ Every week in my neurology clinic, I see people lost in the search for a diagnosis. Sometimes, what’s causing their dementia symptoms is treatable — but was missed for years. We just published a new AI tool to change that. Here's why it matters🧵 @NaipMayo @MayoClinic #ENDAlz

Alert!!!! Anybody out there?!?! “An Action Networks Model for Pain” We propose a new model for chronic pain — and highlight two functionally connected cortical networks that could revolutionize how we treat it. 👉 thread below 🧵 https://t.co/rCIXXGqeis...

Our new discovery reveals how anesthesia causes unconsciousness. This advances our understanding of consciousness and can help make anesthesia safer.

🚨New Publication!!🚨 Transcranial alternating current stimulation (#tACS) can modulate inter-regional synchronization, cross-frequency coupling, traveling waves and more. Here we reviewed the current methods and evidence on how effective tACS is. https://t.co/SnVb5WWn4z

Using multimodal structural and functional neuroimaging approaches, Wiesman et al. show that in Parkinson's disease, alterations in alpha- and beta-band brain rhythms are related to degeneration of the noradrenergic and dopaminergic systems, respectively. https://t.co/4fohhLNI0t
