Interested in dopamine? Have fMRI data? We’ve identified a temporal BOLD feature that carries rich information about dopamine physiology. This measure, obtainable from resting-state and task fMRI, opens new ways to indirectly probe dopamine’s role in cognition and disease. 1/n tinyurl.com/bddyz67b
Temporal fMRI Dynamics Map Dopamine Physiology
Spatial variations in dopamine function are linked to cognition and substance use disorders but are challenging to characterize with current methods. Because dopamine influences blood vessel dilation,...

In keeping with the theme of time travel… now into the future: 🕰️ Another recent paper from the lab—a preregistered study with Isabel Schuman, Jingyi Wang & Ian Ballard @iancballard.bsky.social —is now published. Here, we looked at future orientation, decision making & anorexia nervosa risk.

Thanks @danacobblewis.bsky.social and @asapresearch.bsky.social for supporting and showcasing our work!
In this month's episode of Discover ASAP, neilmdundon.bsky.social, PhD, from CRN Team Strick, joins us to discuss his task-based human fMRI dataset examining the modulatory impact of incentivization and emotional salience on movement 🧪
