@JaredWYoung @PsychopharmEBPS Thanks, Jared! The OST is a very cool task, we've got a few ideas cooking for a follow-up, stay tuned!

@JohnGHowland @PsychopharmEBPS The odor span is a very cool task, and the data sound excellent - especially given that human working memory is so heavily D2-dependent! Not D1 delay-dependent memory! Can't wait to read it with the lab!

I recognize this paper! Thanks for the tweet @PsychopharmEBPS!
@Psychopharm@PsychopharmEBPS
New in #Psychopharm! The odor span task has been proposed as a measure of non-spatial working memory capacity, and it depends upon nucleus accumbens neurons, and D2 (not D1) neurotransmission there! link.springer.com/article/10.100…

Novel non-pharmacological interventions like Gamma Entrainment Using Sensory should be considered for cognitive symptoms in neuropsychiatric disorders like schizophrenia. From a simple brain child with @BryanJenkinsPhD to publication, I am ECSTATIC! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
