Stress+alcohol is not as good as it sounds. It alters your brain structurally and functionally during the development. These are the result of my PhD, a long, stressful but satisfactory journey

The result of a large (42 authors!) collaboration: "Go Figure: Transparency in neuroscience images preserves context and clarifies interpretation" arxiv.org/abs/2504.07824 TL;DR: The FMRI world can (and should) improve results interpretation and reproducibility *today*, via transparent thresholding.

New preprint from the lab: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... This was led by former Bachelor student Débora Elizarrarás and postdoc César Carranza. Here we wanted to study structural brain changes in opiod self-administration. Specifically if there was a link between MRI volume and neuroinflamation.

Morphine self-administration induces region-specific brain volume changes and microglial phenotypic alterations without affecting neuronal density in male Wistar rats

Addiction to opioids, including morphine, is a major public health crisis in the U.S. It has been associated with brain volume changes in reward-related regions, neuronal death, and neuroinflammation....

The project I have been working on for 4 years. I stressed myself in the same way I stressed my rats, but at least they didn't become alcoholics. My advice of the day: it may seem like a good idea to consume alcohol when stressed, but it's not

The entire team behind the amazing scientific research at the cerebral imaging centre. Thanks to @mallarchak.bsky.social for hosting me during these months, and to @egarza.bsky.social to make it possible. I can't summarize everything I learned and the wonderful people I met during my stay. Thanks!!
