#CognitiveControl depends on interactions among large-scale #brain networks. @daspainbrain.bsky.social @brianmathur.bsky.social &co show that claustrum activity increases in memory tasks & has an excitatory influence on regions in multiple task-associated networks @plosbiology.org 🧪 plos.io/4aV5V3C

Claustrum co-activates with internally driven autobiographical memory networks. Top: BOLD signal increases (warm) and decreases (cool) during autobiographical memory (n = 35) Middle: BOLD signal increases from Top overlaid on salience, fronto-parietal, and default mode networks. Note task-related default mode network activity (e.g., PCC). Bottom: BOLD signal decreases from Top overlaid on fronto-parietal and dorsal attention networks. Displayed networks derived from AOMIC data due to absence of resting-state scans in the autobiographical memory dataset.

Hearing wrapping up. TRO stays in place for now. Judge to rule on whether to issue a preliminary injunction within the next few days, previously said she'll work "as quickly as I can given the importance of the case." Judge closes with: "Thank you--I have a lot of work to do." Yeah.

The NIH’s new imposed standard indirect cost rate threatens life-saving brain & behavior research that benefits millions of Americans. SfN, with other scientific organizations,urge reversal of this policy & implore Congress to protect critical research infrastructure. Full statement: bit.ly/4jVJnCL
