ah, yes, the

New lab paper drop, this one has been a long time coming! Driven by Rob Aukema (now a postdoc with Kerry Ressler) this paper in Science Advances answered the lingering question of what role the amygdala plays in stress-induced neuroendocrine responses. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

How does human amygdala circuitry develop through adolescence to support affective and cognitive control processes? Excited to share recent work from my dissertation, now out in Cell Reports, that uses longitudinal, multimodal neuroimaging at 7 Tesla to answer this question! A 🧵 tinyurl.com/5aaf9fpv

Very happy to share my first preprint from @oxexppsy.bsky.social @oxneuro.bsky.social ! We (me + co-first authors @lilweb.bsky.social @mirunarascu.bsky.social + PI @mkflugge.bsky.social + many others) used transcranial focused ultrasound stimulation (TUS/tFUS/LIFU) of the human amygdala ... (1/15)

Looking forward to our SciComm and Art-Sci workshop tomorrow at @lmumuenchen.bsky.social with @edgeneuro.bsky.social 🌈💖 www.neurocamp-munich.com together with @prask.bsky.social

Electrophysiology from resection patients reveals lateralized, temporally specific functions of the medial temporal lobes in fear perception: the right enhances early fear perception, while the left down-regulates it continuously. @eweidner1.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s42...

This took a WHILE but here it is!! The last part of my PhD work is now published @commsbio.nature.com 🕊 We uncovered the temporal and spatial context that define the mTL's role in fear processing. Huge thank you to my co-authors, reviewers, editors, and participants 💖 rdcu.be/exQKb

If you're gonna assign ontological properties to a fucking AI bro I'm gonna walk out of here right now.

There’s a reason Peter Thiel hesitated when asked in a recent interview if he “would prefer the human race to endure”: Within certain tech circles, pro-extinctionism is a mainstream ideology—and some are trying to realize it. A must-read by @xriskology.bsky.social techpolicy.press/digital-euge...

We are looking for a Postdoc who loves fMRI, psychophysiology and data analysis 🎉. We run studies on social cognition and related processes with a focus on schizophrenia. German skills could be beneficial, bc the position involves teaching, but not mandatory. stellen.uni-konstanz.de/jobposting/4...

#PuG2025 see you later! @pug2025.bsky.social @dgps.bsky.social 🌞

Hellooooo Würzburg! @pug2025.bsky.social @dgps.bsky.social I have to admit I am here since Monday but all I have got to know is the inside of the university library and the stunning view from up here. Looking forward to talk to somebody besides my computer soon! 🌸

"Der Wettbewerb ist spannender denn je" - ich habe mir Wissenschaft ja irgendwie anders vorgestellt als ich damals angefangen habe zu studieren.

In a recent podcast @dyamins.bsky.social argues: "We want to be able to use the model of the digital brain as a neurobiomedical discovery and diagnostic design platform." neuroscience.stanford.edu/news/buildin... - That view is popular and I believe that there is a fundamental logical error.

Our lab now also moved to the cool kids' twitter! @sanlabbielefeld.bsky.social 🫶

Damn I did it... I successfully completed my PhD. More than anything I am grateful for every bit of help I got along the way. I do not have an academic background and I always felt like I was a little behind. Thanks to my family, colleague, and friends, I did it 😭❤️ I am so excited for what's next!!

📢 New preprint from the lab: We are very excited to report the discovery of an oscillation in the Central Thalamus using rare direct recordings of human thalamic electrophysiology. The novel oscillation is tightly coupled to specific, natural states of consciousness.🧵

Finally made it over here!
