Last day of #ACNP2026! For those still here, my poster presentation (TH192) tonight reports effects of vibration augmented mindfulness on oscillatory activity recorded with EEG in trauma-exposed adults. These are findings from my F32 under the mentorship of @negarfani.bsky.social and Dr. Greg Siegle

More Than Just Fear: A New Profile of Post-traumatic Stress Disorder Both fear and emotional pain present unique symptom profiles in individuals with post-traumatic stress disorder, potentially informing new treatment approaches.

PTSD is not only about fear. Our new work identifies an emotional pain–dominant profile with distinct neural signatures.

The Reward Positivity signals a goal prediction error The Reward Positivity (RewP) is an electroencephalogram (EEG) feature that emerges following performance feedback and is commonly understood to index both positive and negative reward-prediction error (RPE+ and RPE−, respectively) signals. In contrast to this dominant perspective, we argue that the RewP is an independent EEG feature that selectively responds to positive RPE and is superimposed on a common background signal. We further propose that the RewP signals a goal prediction error: it is elicited by abstract signals instead of by hedonic 'rewards'. This goal prediction error appears to be produced by a critic-like architecture that is associated with the actor–critic framework in reinforcement learning. This perspective emphasizes the role of the RewP in goal attainment and cognitive control as opposed to being a simple indicator of reward receipt.

Cross-modal impact of auditory experience on visual cortical entrainment in children who are hard-of-hearing Abstract. Cross-modal neuroplasticity is a well-studied phenomenon whereby in the absence of sensory input (e.g., in individuals who are deaf or blind), the sensory cortices of the affected modality a...

I'm thrilled to share the latest #CASILab paper, out now in @imagingneurosci.bsky.social! We show that cross-modal neuroplasticity is dependent on auditory experience in children who wear hearing aids, and that neuroplasticity is related to verbal outcomes. Check it out!
