MR guided focused ultrasound surgery is an effective and uprising treatment option for Essential tremor. But where is the optimal site to sonicate? Which spots to avoid due to side-effects?

βOldβ brainstem structure evolved beyond basic motor control
The human red nucleus may also help coordinate action, reward and motivated behavior, a new study suggests.
The brainstemβs red nucleus is an evolutionarily old structure that emerged as animals began to use limbs for walking, but its function in humans reaches beyond motor control, a new study suggests.

When modeling volumes of tissue activated in subthalamic DBS for clinical outcomes, does it matter whether we process data in native or template space? Julianna Pijar and Clemens Neudorfer say No in the Brain Stimulation Journal:

It was a great honor to talk with the founding editor of Brain Stimulation, Dr. Harold Sackeim!
Beyond the past, present and future of ECT, we covered the entire field of neuromodulation.
Priceless insights from a key leader in the field!

A postdoc in my lab contacted a fellow scientist to get some advice and was told that, because he's currently working on the topic, he "can't give away all his secrets." I find this extremely lame, and yet I keep encountering it. Science is not a zero-sum game!!

DLPFC Stimulation Suppresses High-Frequency Neural Activity in the Human sgACC
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) is hypothesized to relieve symptoms of depression by inhibiting activity in the subgenual anterior cingulate corte...
When we use TMS to treat depression, we think it alters neural activity in a deep brain structure known as the subgenual anterior cingulate (sgACC). But this is hard to test directly, until our preprint with @coreykeller.bsky.social, @neuro-engineer.bsky.social, Nick Trapp, and Aaron Boes (UIowa) 1/

Started my morning with a super interesting literature search thanks to this prompt!
Were currently analyzing volumetric changes pre and post ECT in schizophrenia - will be really cool to compare seizures that cause psychosis to seizures that improve psychosis. Really admire your work, by the way

We think of white matter as the brain's highwaysβuniform conduits between cortices. But what if we study development along tracts? Turns out the journey matters as much as the cortical destination! We're thrilled to share βTwo Axes of White Matter Developmentβ www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
