Trials for computational psychiatry - Nature Computational Science
Computational psychiatry is increasingly delivering causal evidence by focusing on interventions research and clinical trials. Causal evidence could improve patient outcomes through improved precision, repurposing, novel interventions, scaling of psychotherapy and better translation to the clinic.

The brain's priors have been found! They were hiding everywhere: www.nature.com/articles/s41.... So if this is true for "simple" decisions, it should also be true for more complex ones, like, say, emotions, right?
Brain-wide representations of prior information in mouse decision-making - Nature
Brain-wide recordings in mice reveal that prior expectations are distributed through recurrent loops across all levels of cortical and subcortical processing.
