📣 Happy to share that our paper with Johan Vegelius is published!

Title: “Developmental differences in reward-learning and its connection to resting-state functional connectivity modeled using a hierarchical Bayesian model”

Find the full paper here:

Developmental differences in reward-learning and its connection to resting-state functional connectivity modeled using a hierarchical Bayesian model - PubMed
Adolescence is a period of heightened sensation-seeking, risk-taking, and reward sensitivity, characterized by structural and functional changes in the brain. Developmental changes in functional connectivity between cortical and subcortical regions may refine communication within reward-related circ …

Higher glucose levels buffer against everyday stress load
Adaptive stress responses are dependent on the availability of energy and the body's effectiveness in metabolizing glucose as fuel. However, it is not well understood if glucose levels contribute to t...

So glad to have been part of the #ECNP2025 conference!

It was a great opportunity to present my poster on how different oral contraceptive states affect physiological and neural stress reactivity, and discuss new perspectives on mental health and well-being 🧠

Metabolic state shapes cortisol reactivity to acute stress: A systematic review and meta-analysis of metabolic and hormonal modulators
Individual variability in cortisol stress responses is shaped by multiple physiological factors. Yet the interaction with metabolic and hormonal states remains poorly understood. Therefore, we conduct...
