Sounds like a rough neighborhood. Nice view though.

I take it back, EVERYONE should publish their abstracts in punk rock format. youtu.be/4baxSlV8hms I may or may not post the metal version, which is epic.

Epic research journey! Sounds far more stressful than it needed to be. Great informative findings in the end though!

Yes pleased add me

Cool! Glad you are reading it! It's the work I am most proud of. Let me know if you would like some presubmission feedback. It took a while to get our paper right. Both the interoception and pharmacology folks have diverse views and it can be a real challenge to please them all.

These are amazing! I will look into using them for our interoception class. I just realised I need to be more specific with a group heavy on interoception (OTHER people's bodies). I am such a hive mind rookie....

Also preliminary is that the neural SSRI effect on cardiac interoception in the amygdala predicted our previously published effects metacognitive cardiac interoceptive insight (this is in the supplemental material). 8/10

Exploratory post hoc analysis also showed that the effects of the SSRI on the stomach response in the amygdala predicted effects on anxiety (increases and decreases) across the sample. 7/10

Excitingly, we replicated the already-known interoception response that is proportional to anxiety in the anterior insula on a placebo. But the SSRI BREAKS that link, with a significant change in the interoception-anxiety relationship in the region. 6/10

This SSRI effect also happened during attention to the heart in the amygdala, possibly reflecting an effect on the integration of cardiac interoception in affective processes 5/10
