Neural Variability and Cognitive Control in Individuals With Opioid Use Disorder
This case-control study compares functional magnetic resonance imaging data from individuals with opioid use disorder (OUD) and healthy control participants to examine whether individuals with OUD hav...

Thrilled to share Jean Ye’s latest paper on brain dynamics in opioid use disorder (OUD), using resting-state, task-based, and naturalistic fMRI! Check it out at Jama Network Open: jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

In a recent @cp-neuron.bsky.social study, @dscheinost.bsky.social and @yaleschoolofmed.bsky.social's Jean Ye found that neural variability 🧠—brain fluctuations that support flexible behavior—increases 📈 through childhood 👶before stabilizing in adolescence🧍
Brain Activity is Increasingly Variable During Development
Fluctuations in brain activity increase until mid-adolescence. Deviations from this trajectory are linked to worse executive functioning.

Excited to share our work now out in @cp-neuron.bsky.social !!! We found that during development, people become more variable in how much they engage recurring brain states.

It is more important than ever to promote inclusive & representative science as best scientific practice. In this new paper, we highlight modality-level (MRI, MEG, EEG, fNIRS, ultrasound) obstacles & initiatives for improved inclusivity in FIT neuroimaging. doi.org/10.1016/j.dcn.2024.101505

📢 In a new study, @yaleschoolofmed.bsky.social's Jean Ye, @evgoldfarb.bsky.social, & @dscheinost.bsky.social found that people with opioid use disorder had less cognitive flexibility in engaging different brain states 🧠after viewing opioid-related images💊📷

Opioid use disorder might lead to ‘sticky’ brains
Individuals with opioid use disorder were less able to flexibly engage different patterns of brain activity, Yale researchers found.
