Springer has overwritten my articles doi with some correction on a different article and has not rectified this since more than a month. 😫 They keep promising to fix it and nothing happens 😡 If anyone wants to read it, email me or request it through researchgate! 🤗

Now Rebecca Boehme shows that TMS stimulation of the extra-striate body area prior to intensive perceptual training led to significant improvement in body satisfaction AND more 'normal' neural responses to own-body touch post training. @rebeccaboehme.bsky.social

Do you think @paulasalamone.bsky.social et al.’s findings of pervasive sensory and self-interoception disturbances in psychotic patients may suggest that enhanced sensory integration therapies can alleviate hallmark psychosis symptoms? bit.ly/459f4mV #PRF

Looking forward to presenting our recent study on ketamine and the sense of self as well as my upcoming clinical trial on psilocybin for complicated/prolonged grief at the Borealis summit in Stockholm in 2 weeks 🤩 🧠 🥰

how it feels to have an article published

Thanks to all (co)authors & reviewers for their contribution to this study on #layer specific changes in #sensory #cortex across the #lifespan in #humans & #mice now out in @natneuro.nature.com Here is a short summary of our findings 1/6

2000 USD publication fee and nobody at the journal noticed the typo in the title? 😧😒 (not the authors fault of course) ((looks like an interesting paper btw, fits very well with our recent publication on impaired processing of self-generated sensations in SZ)) www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Thanks for the photo 😅 (as I am behind some of the post at BRNet this week with Laura and Marie) We are super happy to share this self-touch / interoception research study in psychosis 🎉 from Rebecca Boehme’s lab @rebeccaboehme.bsky.social

Today we held the initiation meeting for my study "PGD-psi" on psilocybin for prolonged / complicated grief 😊 Recruitment staring soon 😍🧠🤩 #neuroskyence #PsychSciSky #grief #psychedelics #psilocybin

"the humanities, and writing in particular, are quickly becoming an anachronistic art elective like basket-weaving" "the idea is that someday soon it’ll run on a wearable device, seeing, hearing, and reacting to everything in your environment. “Then, eventually, it’s just in your brain,..."

First post on an exciting new manuscript online today @natneuro.nature.com - in collab with @lucinauddin.bsky.social and Catie Chang. We take a fresh look at the physiological dynamics associated with the global signal 🧠 ... www.nature.com/articles/s41... Read here: rdcu.be/ek01F

🎈Our latest 🪅 We know that in addition to exteroceptive mechanisms, interoceptive chemosensation is also critical for regulating physiology/behavior. We find that an enteric neuron in worms senses ingested salts via a variant ionotropic receptor (IR like the fly IRs) to regulate salt stress. 1/n

People often claim psychedelics have been used globally, for millennia, & in rituals of psychological healing. In today's Guardian Long Read, I show what these stories get wrong & why the reality is far more interesting: www.theguardian.com/science/2025... From "Shamanism: The Timeless Religion"

Female bonobos form coalitions against males to secure their social status and reduce sex differences in power, according to a paper in Communications Biology. The study suggests the impact of male aggression is mitigated by females grouping together. go.nature.com/4d60a3f 🧪

New paper from our lab now in @nature.com . We show that our brains use basis functions or "building blocks" to navigate social interactions. Rather than tracking every individual separately, social information is compressed into patterns that can be flexibly combined. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Our paper in Nature (@mkwittmann.bsky.social et al.): the brain does not only process the *identity* of a person but primarily our *relationship* to them. Even on a neural level, who someone is *in relation to others* is key. www.nature.com/articles/s41... #PsychSciSky #socialpsyc #neuroskyence

🧠🍽️ #Amylin acts in the central amygdala (CeA) to regulate feeding & motivated behavior We show that CeA amylin signaling is critical for appetite suppression, macronutrient selection & body weight control. Disrupting this pathway leads to hyperphagia & weight gain. #Neuroskyence 🧪 #ObesityResearch

Our paper @dulaclab.bsky.social on social homeostasis is online today! We characterized “social rebound” behavior after social isolation in multiple mouse strains and revealed its neural basis. Intriguingly, soft touch plays a key role in satisfying social need! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Medical advances in the past few decades have redefined migraine as a treatable and manageable condition. Research is also leading to a better understanding about the condition and pointing to directions for future work. Read the Nature feature. 🧪

Wer von Wissenschaft „Neutralität“ verlangt, verfolgt damit oft selbst 1 politische Agenda. Als Wissenschaftler_in unsere Demokratie zur Disposition stellen, um falschem Neutralitätsideal zu entsprechen, IST politisch — & gefährlich. #LauteWissenschaft Danke @annetteless.bsky.social fürs Gespräch!
