Very pleased to share that our study “Noradrenaline causes a spread of association in the hippocampal cognitive map” is out in @natcomms.nature.com (my final PhD paper, only 3.5 years post PhD! 🙃) Find the paper here: www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Noradrenaline causes a spread of association in the hippocampal cognitive map - Nature Communications
When forming a cognitive map, a trade-off exists between facilitating novel inferences and storing veridical copies of past experience. Here the authors show that the neuromodulator noradrenaline sets...

Ultrasound gives our brain a nudge in the right direction 🧠 👀 Look to your left, look to your right! We used #ultrasound to stimulate the brain and it changed human choice behavior within a fraction of a second. No surgery, no implants. Link to paper ⬇️ www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Rapid modulation of choice behavior by ultrasound on the human frontal eye fields - Nature Communications
Brief ultrasound to human frontal eye fields, but not motor cortex, rapidly biases eye movement contralaterally in a perceptual choice task. The size of this effect scales with individual baseline FEF...
