How do gut signals shape motivation? After years of hard work led by the fabulous @corcerebrum.bsky.social, we show that ghrelin infusions increase hunger, food motivation, and FC between the hypothalamus and the striatum. This is driven by more pulses in the NAcc.

We found a globally rare variant rather common in Estonia that rises BMI by 0.8 units per allele 🤯 @estbiobank.bsky.social
Awesome! Looking forward to seeing you there, and let's hope they do not take place at the same time😅!
New preprint led by Chris Colvin entitled “Tradeoffs Between Convenience, Cost, and Healthy Eating Index for Diets Aligned to the Dietary Guidelines for Americans but Varying in Ultra-Processed Foods”

Do you have experience turning amateur data analysis scripts into robust, scalable code? I’m hiring (hourly pay) to professionalize Python scripts for scientific data analysis, making them reusable across multiple datasets.
Tromsø/Norway-based candidates preferred, but all are welcome! DM me!
@filipkmorys.bsky.social et al. Always digging deeper🤓
Calling all behavior lovers- come learn about LabGym, a new tool for automated behavioral analysis. It's pretty amazing and useful. Please repost. @ssibsociety.bsky.social @ummni.bsky.social @acnporg.bsky.social @sfn.org
"The peril of preconceived narratives" in @cp-cellmetabolism.bsky.social with @vdarcey.bsky.social in response to the fall out from our recent study that failed to show significant brain dopamine responses to UPF milkshakes similar to highly addictive drugs. authors.elsevier.com/c/1lYiE5WXUl...

"The credibility of research is essential for maintaining public trust in science....What if we could create automated methods that achieve replicability prediction in a few seconds?"
I'm very excited that this is out as preprint. In this study, 370 participants completed up to 30 runs of reward learning. We see that BMI and and Binge eating are associated with distinct RL patterns. Includes hierarchical models using Stan (+ many hours of sampling) and MRI data of an effort task
A flood of scientific papers making misleading #health and #nutrition claims is probably the product of artificial intelligence tools scraping openly available data, researchers warn. nature.com/articles/d41... #AI #PaperMills
