Predictive coding frames autism and schizophrenia as imbalances in top-down vs. bottom-up processing. Autism may favor bottom-up sensory input, leading to a focus on details and sensory overload. Schizophrenia may favor top-down beliefs, leading to hallucinations and delusions.

This is Mariano Barbacid, a Spanish cancer researcher who recently made the news after finding a cure for an aggressive form of pancreatic cancer in mice. His lab developed a new triple therapy regimen targeting the KRAS cancer pathway, implicated in 90% of pancreatic cancers. The combination of daraxonsib, a RAS(ON) inhibitor, afatinib (EGFR/HER2 inhibitor) and SD36 (a selective STAT3 PROTAC) led to complete elimination of tumour cells over a 200 day study period, bringing much needed hope to this often devastating condition.

Why do neurologists come up with different ideas about prognosis and treatment - at the same institution - for super-refractory status epilepticus?
It was fascinating to talk to Matt Woodward about clinical variability on the @AANmember podcast!
