Do you have #ADHD or #autism? We're running a short, anonymous survey on interoception. It takes just 15โ€“20 minutes, and your input would mean a lot.

A graphical abstract titled "Can Beta-Blockers Manipulate Interoception? A Placebo-Controlled Study." The image illustrates how bisoprolol and propranolol affect interoception. On the left, a green figure represents bisoprolol, showing a zoomed-in synapse where it selectively blocks ฮฒ1 receptors. On the right, a purple figure represents propranolol, blocking both ฮฒ1 and ฮฒ2 receptors, affecting both brain and body. A psychophysics graph models interoceptive responses, showing response intensity over trials. Below, line plots compare placebo, propranolol, and bisoprolol effects on interoceptionโ€”cardioception (threshold) and respiroception (slope)โ€”indicating drug effects on bodily awareness.

Can we enhance interoception by controlling the heart? Thrilled to share our new study, led by @ashleytyrer.bsky.social , where we use computational modeling to show that blockading peripheral noradrenaline uniquely alters awareness of heart rate & breathing! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... ๐Ÿงต๐Ÿ‘‡

If you've been wondering where I went: my team in Oxford (60 of us!) build beautiful tools for NHS data. We help researchers work on the whole nation's GP records while protecting - provably - everyone's privacy. It's big potatoes!

The preference for surprise in reinforcement learning underlies the differences in developmental changes in risk preference between autistic and neurotypical youth - Molecular Autism Background Risk preference changes nonlinearly across development. Although extensive developmental research on the neurotypical (NTP) population has shown that risk preference is highest during adole...

In autistic vs typical 6-30 yr-olds, no group difference in mean risk preference molecularautism.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.... but risk preference "decreased toward adolescence & increased afterward" in autistics--the opposite of typical people ("increased toward adolescence & decreased later")?

The brainโ€™s action-mode is created by a dedicated action-mode network (AMN) rdcu.be/d5odm. In the brainโ€™s mode continuum, AMN sits opposite DMNโ€™s default-mode, as yin-yang. AMN might be key in pain, apathy, Parkinsonโ€™s. New @natrevneurosci.bsky.social w/ Marc Raichle & @gordonneuro.bsky.social ๐Ÿงต โฌ‡๏ธ

Default mode network functional connectivity as a transdiagnostic biomarker of cognitive function The default mode network (DMN) is intricately linked with processes such as self-referential thinking, episodic memory recall, goal-directed cognitionโ€ฆ

So glad this review paper on the possible use of Default Mode Network functional connectivity as a transdiagnostic biomarker was published in Biological Psychiatry: CNNI.
