Then we have a new paper led by Nazia Jassim @naziajassim.bsky.social on the neurochemical markers of uncertainty processing and links to trait anxiety: www.nature.com/articles/s41... @natcomms.nature.com

Computational signatures of uncertainty are reflected in motor cortex excitatory neurochemistry - Nature Communications
Using computational modelling and neurochemical analysis, this study shows how motor cortex excitatory signals guide belief updating and adaptive learning in uncertain environments.

First up, this paper led by Bronagh McCoy: journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol... When noise and volatility are independently manipulated people behave differently depending on their anxious traits.

The relationship between anxious traits and learning about changes in stochasticity and volatility
Author summary Adapting to changes in our environment is a daily endeavour. To do so, humans and animals alike make use of feedback to guide future actions. Uncertainty in the environment can arise fr...

New preprint alert! How do we process uncertainty, and how do neurometabolites shape this?🧠Here we combine computational modeling + 7T MRS to answer these questions: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... With Peter Thestrup Waade, Chris Mathys, Frederike Petzchner, @beckyneuro.bsky.social & others! 🧵(1/4)

Neurochemical markers of uncertainty processing in humans
How individuals process and respond to uncertainty has important implications for cognition and mental health. Here we use computational phenotyping to examine individualised 'uncertainty fingerprints...
