🧵 1/ Does depression recovery rewire the mind-body connection? Our latest from the Nash Family Center for Advanced Circuit Therapeutics explores effects of deep brain stimulation for depression on neural interoception. #NashNeuroscience www.biologicalpsychiatrycnni.org/article/S245...

Neural Interoceptive Processing Is Modulated by Deep Brain Stimulation to Subcallosal Cingulate Cortex for Treatment-Resistant Depression
Symptoms of depression are associated with impaired interoceptive processing of bodily sensation. The antidepressant effects of subcallosal cingulate deep brain stimulation (SCC DBS) include acute cha...

We often mind-wander about our past, present, & future. What happens when our minds drift towards our bodies? In a new fMRI study (n ~ 500), @leahbanellis.bsky.social + team discovers unique neural, affective, & physiological correlates of "body-wandering" at rest. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

I enjoyed this clear, 2022 article on the parentified child, i.e. a child growing up with a family that expected the child to do the affective regulation of the parents or their difficult dynamics. aeon.co/essays/how-c...

When parents cast a child into the role of mediator, friend and carer, the wounds are profound. But recovery is possible

Introspective psychophysics for the study of subjective experience
Abstract. Studying subjective experience is hard. We believe that pain is not identical to nociception, nor pleasure a computational reward signal, nor fea

Excited to share my first post here! Our new paper reveals a top-down breathing circuit that slows breathing to ease anxiety & fear. A step forward in understanding how brain-breathing interactions shape emotion. Published in Nature Neuroscience—grateful to my team! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

We have a new preprint out, with Teresa Schuhmann, Alex Sack and Catherine Tallon-Baudry. I think our findings give some interesting leads on the various mechanisms underlying visceral influences on the motor system and how we conceptualize interoception as a whole. #neuroskyence

It's one of the most remarkable days of Insula week (day 3). ❓What happens when you stimulate it❓ Among the things, ⚡ecstatic sensation⚡ “a sense of hyper-reality, and a complete present-moment awareness with a feeling of union with the Universe." WOW! pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31196836/
