Combining brain imaging, genetics, and behavioral data shows that distinct brainwide distributions of #serotonin receptors explain the known division of serotonin effects on human impulsivity and aversive processing

Thanks also to P. Desrosiers & X. Roy-Pomerleau for their excellent overview https://t.co/k1c5H6SV90

Be that ONE node - please RT

Have you ever wondered how cell-specific neuronal activity drives brain-wide dynamics? Our new findings show precisely this! https://t.co/yd5PmaY85j 👏👏 @neuropg @LazariAlberto @heidijoberg @neurovidaurre @grandjeanlab @Francimandi @OxfordWIN @DondersInst

8/ Big shout out to our incredible 🐭 collaborators @grandjeanlab @Francimandi @DondersInst, and to the amazing 🧠 team at @OxfordWIN @heidijoberg @LazariAlberto @neurovidaurre

Our new opto-fMRI pre-print using Hidden Markov Models is out! https://t.co/yWQRrzDvIz We used unsupervised detection of dynamic states induced by optogenetics, and applied this method to study communication between brain networks. Thread with details and data 👇 link:

Causal evidence of network communication in whole-brain dynamics through a multiplexed neural code https://t.co/dH03MHIGy2 #biorxiv_neursci

[Piergiorgio Salvan @neuropg]

7/ And btw, the data is openly available in OpenNeuro 🔥: https://t.co/85tWAOKCtB

Most of what we know from neuroscience studies today is based on data deriving from group averages. This can be a problem. Why?

1) In our new paper, out now in the @JNeuroscience , we investigated how precise lesions to the hippocampus affect old memories and the creation of new memories in monkeys. @SfNtweets https://t.co/v6TVpJlQLL

Rogier Mars (@NeuroecologyLab) compares the organization of the human & non-human primate brain to find out what makes us unique (image shows regions of the human brain not found in the macaque monkey brain in red). #WINners
