Interested in dopamine? Have fMRI data? We’ve identified a temporal BOLD feature that carries rich information about dopamine physiology. This measure, obtainable from resting-state and task fMRI, opens new ways to indirectly probe dopamine’s role in cognition and disease. 1/n tinyurl.com/bddyz67b
A bit late to post this... but what’s a delay when the paper’s in a special issue on Emotional Time Travel? 🙂 🕰️
Excited to share this work—led by postdoc Jingyi Wang—on how emotional event boundaries shape temporal memory.
In keeping with the theme of time travel… now into the future: 🕰️ Another recent paper from the lab—a preregistered study with Isabel Schuman, Jingyi Wang & Ian Ballard @iancballard.bsky.social —is now published. Here, we looked at future orientation, decision making & anorexia nervosa risk.
Spatial variations in dopamine function are linked to cognition and substance use disorders but are challenging to characterize with current methods. Because dopamine influences blood vessel dilation,...

Scientific Reports - Willing to wait: Anorexia nervosa symptomatology is associated with higher future orientation and reduced intertemporal discounting
Emotional fluctuations are ubiquitous in everyday life, but precisely how they sculpt the temporal organisation of memories remains unclear. Here, we designed a novel task – the Emotion Boundary Ta...

Thanks @danacobblewis.bsky.social and @asapresearch.bsky.social for supporting and showcasing our work!
When something exciting or threatening happens, it can change how we move. But how do emotional signals in the brain actually reach the parts that control movement? The well-known route for voluntary ...
New preprint 🚨🧠🔬
@sophiepeterson.bsky.social + @margole.bsky.social dissect the roles of 2 major OFC subcortical pathways in context-dependent reward prediction.
TLDR:
OFC→CDS: critical for hierarchical gating of predictions.
OFC→MDT: more modest role, possibly limiting non-hierarchical predictions
