Fasting can exert mood enhancing effects, but it is not clear how. We show that fasting levels of the stomach-derived hormone ghrelin are associated with an elevated mood. Effects were stronger in patients with depression taking no meds.

So excited to have this finally out! This would not have been possible without the great mentorship of @cornu_copiae at all stages of the process! Work w/ @Claustrum_Psy @anne_kuehnel @neuroMADLAB and many more!

With Christmas and lots of food approaching, go check out our new preprint on ghrelin and its association with mood (spoiler: ghrelin is more than a "hunger hormone")! 🧵

We have previously shown that non-invasive tVNS boosts the drive to work for rewards in healthy people, but what about patients with depression?
In our new preprint, we show tVNS-induced increases in motivation that are even maintained.

We are hiring two PhD students as part of the newly established German Center for Mental Health @TueCMH.

We will evaluate the effectiveness of non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation to improve the recovery of mental and physical health.

Curious? Check https://t.co/iACXbEH9o3

[Nils Kroemer @cornu_copiae]

Are you interested in using brain stimulation to treat mental disorders?

We are still looking for PhD students to join us @TueCMH to work on vagus nerve stimulation:

Next week, three lab members will travel to the Mind-Brain-Body Symposium in Berlin to present their work. @Cor_Et_Cerebrum and @Cecivez will also take over the lab account to cover the conference for you.
Stay tuned #MBB2023 https://t.co/3okTkJeSln

I gave an interview to the SZ about how to cut back on alcohol (unfortunately behind a paywall)

Wie können wir die Steuerungsfunktionen unseres Körpers für die Therapie von Motivationsstörungen nutzbar machen? Ein Videopodcast für @dbstiftung erklärt unsere Arbeiten zur Neuromodulation.
Zur Abwechslung wieder ein #scicomm Beitrag auf 🇩🇪

Come work with us. Sure, there is science, but we have free coffee and snacks as well. And did we mention the view from our offices?

Last week, we @neuroMADLAB were awarded our third @dfg_public grant.

We will continue our work on non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation & I am excited to evaluate its potential in modulating stomach-brain coupling in depression.

Special thanks to our very supportive reviewers 🙏

Check out our @neuroMADLAB poster at #dgppn in Berlin: taVNS acutely ameliorates hedonic responses in MDD!

[Nils Kroemer @cornu_copiae]

New preprint🚨:
Vagus nerve stimulation acutely boosts food liking in patients with depression, but not in healthy people. Improvements are correlated with anhedonia & tVNS normalizes liking across the sample.

We are entering the 5th year of @neuroMADLAB with an updated group photo. It has been a ride, but I had the best company to cruise through the ups and downs.
