Curious what you think of the Barbas lab proposals that cyto and connectivity are deeply related? E.g., feedforward and feedback connections based on cortical types. Seems to be a nice unifying idea of why both matter in different ways and are related evolutionarily, etc: doi.org/10.1007/s004...
As called on Miami Spanish radio:
And really curious what you make of the lack of NAcc FC stimulant effect, seems like another (fun?) piece of this complicated puzzle 🧩
Really interesting! Wondering how these rsFC differences would play out in a task selection or distractor resistance setting. E.g., cool work from @seanfw.bsky.social showing cortical dopamine is critical for that in whole brain models, especially in PFC: doi.org/10.1016/j.neuron.2021.08.024
Kudos to the Brown University students who are posting continuous live updates, spaced just minutes apart, on the campus shooting. A lot of grace and professionalism under immense pressure.

As I spent more and more of my life under the care of doctors, nurses, and researchers striving to improve the lives of others, I watched as Bobby cut nearly a half billion dollars for research into mRNA vaccines, technology that could be used against certain cancers; slashed billions in funding from the National Institutes of Health, the world's largest sponsor of medical research; and threatened to oust the panel of medical experts charged with recommending preventive cancer screenings. Hundreds of N.I.H. grants and clinical trials were cancelled, affecting thousands of patients. I worried about funding for leukemia and bone-marrow research at Memorial Sloan Kettering. I worried about the trials that were my only shot at remission. Early in my illness, when I
Just an absolutely gutting essay by Tatiana Schlossberg, a writer, mother of two young children, and cousin of RFK Jr who is dying of leukemia.

👇Happening this afternoon at #SfN25 #SfN2025 as part of a nano poster group on finescale organization of the PFC, including work from @rodbraga.bsky.social @derekevannee.bsky.social @abbynoyce.bsky.social @visscherlab.bsky.social @neurojacob.bsky.social and more!
Come see them all 👀👀👀
Presenting on contingency representations in PFC during WM on Saturday at SfN! Featuring fMRI and multi-area RNN modeling from my time with John Murray 🤓
And, recruiting a PhD student for Fall ‘26 in my new lab at U-Miami! Check us out here, and feel free to reach out: jam-lab.org (apps due 12/1)

Major update to our preprint. Led
by @xuanyuwang.bsky.social, we show that the mesoscopic functional organization of the primate PFC reflects individual cognitive strategies and mnemonic abilities. 🧠 doi.org/10.1101/2024...

Today’s grad cog neuro course is being taught by your very own Hippo (on) campus!
And yes, he feels strongly about his position atop the Felleman / Van Essen wiring diagram

Stellar! @actlab.bsky.social will have to bring his bluegrass band to play CNS…

That is *of course* why fMRI is my method of choice, so we can measure our (black box) whole-brain BOLD signal with the advantage of astrocyte neurovascular influences 😅 or something like that….
