People with #cocaine #addiction had decreased #functional #connectivity in frontal & subcortical brain networks during early abstinence linked to decreased inhibitory control and increased craving - possibly underlying #incubation of #craving:

Going to #OHBM ? Here’s a sneak peak of my results for my poster on rsfMRI-based subtyping in Alcohol Use Disorder! Come chat with me Tues & Weds at poster number 1757 to hear all the details 🧠 @AZilverstand @OHBM @UMN_Psychiatry @UMN_MDTA #OHBM2023

[Leyla Brucar @LeylaBrucar]

We're (@AnaManea10) excited&thankful to receive a @UMN_MDTA Center for Neural Circuits in Addiction Pilot Award for our project: From NHPs to Humans: Translational Neuroimaging-Based Biomarkers of the DA System Across the Stages of Cocaine Addiction @AZilverstand @_janzimmermann_

I want to share a group opinion on a recent paper that claimed they demonstrated intelligence-like properties in neurons in a dish. I hope it’s helpful. Thanks to all the collaborators and colleagues https://t.co/wjV7f1gNSp

[Leyla Brucar @LeylaBrucar]

My 1st first-author paper of my PhD is out in @BiologicalPsyc1! We wrote a systematic review of psychiatric brain-based subtyping, providing an overview of methodological practice, progress&limitations in this field

Time to clear up some of the misconceptions and incorrect claims in this thread and accompanying paper:

The Simian Collective 2023 will September 20-22nd in Chicago. This NHP neuroscience focused conference balances sciences, advocacy and ethics. Abstracts for student talks and posters and YIA applications due June 15th https://t.co/rFzFY1WqNZ @slimanjbensmaia @MIcheleABasso1

Can gastrointestinal hormones modulate our reward responses? @Cecivez and I ventured into the available data and literature to find that
🎯 ghrelin enhances reward responses within the motivational circuit! w/ @cornu_copiae

New preprint: Can fMRI "functional connectivity" (FC) be interpreted through a noise correlation/neural coding framework? In general, yes -- task FC/correlations configure task coding, but cannot be inferred without the signal correlation (tuning similarity). @johndmurray

[Richard Gao @_rdgao]

no fake blue check but board YY2 tomorrow in the dreaded Wed afternoon session:

fitting AdExIF spiking neural networks to neural population data to infer underlying circuit parameters - reduce graduate student pain of manual parameter search! with @deismic_ and @jakhmack

[Nils Kroemer @cornu_copiae]

On Saturday, @Cor_Et_Cerebrum will give her first talk at an international conference 🙌 in an oral session on hormonal control of feeding. Using data from our binge eating study, she will present evidence that ghrelin increases hedonic tuning of reward-seeking.

A little NHP advocacy regarding the ambitions of our recent Simian Collective meeting

@MonosovLab @_janzimmermann_ @CoryMillerMarmo @MIcheleABasso1 Thank you!!

[Ana Manea @AnaManea10]

@_rdgao @_janzimmermann_ @roxana_zeraati Stay tuned for some LFP timescales!!!

[Richard Gao @_rdgao]

a bit late but finally finished the COSYNE2022 blogpost. In it:

1. some works I found particularly interesting at the main conference

2. musings on "how to conference"

3. a report about our (best!) workshop on neural timescales with @roxana_zeraati

Our paper on the brain's resting-state CAUSAL CONNECTOME is out in @NeuroImage_EiC
We used an effective connectivity method to demonstrate the crucial role of the Frontoparietal network as a hub network of the brain:

NHP research is under constant threat from those who do not understand its critical role in basic and translational science. @CoryMillerMarmo, @MIcheleABasso1, Sabine Kastner, and I have been raising awareness about the contributions of NHP research to science and health. 1/3
