Super important post for people in transcranial ultrasound neurostim - please read👇🏼
A brain injury was reported in a trial using ultrasound, framed as low-intensity TUS. Kim Butts Pauly and I reviewed the case and disagreed with how it's presented. Key acoustic data are missing.

Very happy to share my first preprint from @oxexppsy.bsky.social @oxneuro.bsky.social ! We (me + co-first authors @lilweb.bsky.social @mirunarascu.bsky.social + PI @mkflugge.bsky.social + many others) used transcranial focused ultrasound stimulation (TUS/tFUS/LIFU) of the human amygdala ... (1/15)

Our paper is now out in Journal of Neuroscience!🥂

We show that motor training strengthens cortico-cerebellar connectivity in patients with cerebellar degeneration, especially in movement-related networks.

Great collaboration with @unidue.bsky.social, made possible through @thinkglobal_rub 🧠
#JNeurosci | Using a large patient population, Nettekoven et al. identified a neural pathway involving the cerebellum that has increased functional connections following motor training. https://doi.org/10.1523/JNEUROSCI.1823-24.2025

Landed at the Cerebellum GRC in Switzerland, where the science is high-level and so are the altitudes.

Very ready for this week's deep dives into cerebellar function, alongside some excellent bovine branding. 🐄🧠

Thank you! 🙏
Congratulations again to #WIN member @carobellum.bsky.social on her Brain Star award. Her winning publication led to the development of a functional atlas of the human cerebellum. Another example of the great neuroscience work happening in the @diedrichsenjorn.bsky.social lab here at @westernu.ca
