Out at last..!

Receptor-informed network control theory links LSD and psilocybin to a flattening of the brain's control energy landscape.

nature.com/articles/s4146… Image Here we reanalyze old fMRI data from @Imperial_PRG, using an emerging framework for modeling dynamics in the brain (network control theory). The opportunity psychedelics provide is in vivo stimulation + model incorporation of receptor spatial distribution (site & extent of stim). Image

New preprint!
biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Excited to share my first paper with @amykooz and others.

Here’s what we did: 🧵 Some background
The RElaxed Beliefs Under pSychedelics (REBUS) model by @RCarhartHarris & Friston proposes that increased neural entropy observed under psychedelics (psychs) relaxes the brain’s prior beliefs & their influence over incoming info. These priors shape our perception. Image
