As a hopefully welcome interruption from the riotous IIT discourse on your timeline; my FIRST preprint is out now! Let’s take a minute to think about how the brain does time : biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 🧵 1/14

What does the earth sound like? I built a tool that lets you drag a needle across any landscape on Earth like a record player, and hear and export it as audio.

science would progress faster if the loss function were fun instead of publication

@camtology @zzzergio There might be a fun essay on this I’d be up for collaborating on. DM me chatgpt.com/share/6745b70e…

@camtology @zzzergio I’m also failing to imagine how attractor landscapes in dynamical systems relate to [de]teretorialization. Could you say more?
I’m sympathetic to mathsing 1k plateaus ideas tho. E.g modelling rhizomes under graph theory / assemblages under category theory
English
Glad that psychology is finally catching up to mapping some of the basic concepts of Deleuze & Guattari, they’re on track to thinking they’ve discovered deterritorialization in about 20 years

According to dynamical systems, psychiatric disorders can be seen as energy landscapes with peaks and valleys. OCD has deep valleys where neural activity gets stuck, while schizophrenia has shallow valleys that let neural activity roam too freely, connecting unrelated ideas.

We're still recruiting healthy participants for psilocybin study!
If you have 3-5 lifetime psychedelic experiences, minimal meditation experience, and can commit to a 21-day prep course with visits to UCL over a 4-week period, we want to hear from you!

📢 Exciting opportunity: @UCL_CPU is hiring a postdoc for a new clinical trial exploring nitrous oxide therapy for PTSD!
Work alongside @sunjeevk in a the best lab ever...
Please share!

How can 2C-B 💊contribute to psychedelic neuroscience, an otherwise "forgotten" psychedelic? We went off with @singletonion ,@NL_Mason , @sattertt and Jan to take an initial look at this using 7T resting state fMRI. 👇

Very excited to see this out - I think this will go down as a big moment in our understanding of psychedelic neuroscience.
There's also quite a bit more cool stuff in the pipeline, so give @rhizoqualia a follow to stay in the loop. Watch this space...

Ever wondered what happens in the brain when someone takes the world’s most powerful psychedelic drug?🧐Me too! So we went and found out. Our new preprint is now live where you can read all about it: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

absolutely fizzing about the 5-MeO-DMT EEG study preprint published today. singularities/topological defect endurance reduced in cortical dynamics – very similar to the phenomenology observed by the QRI HEART team @rhizoqualia
Cube Flipper@cube_flipper
in short, i believe that where classical psychedelics engender a 5-HT2A receptor mediated *active coping* response, 5-MeO-DMT engenders a 5-HT1A receptor mediated *passive coping* response. this is experienced subjectively as a "disentangling" of the phenomenal fields heart.qri.org/retreats/2023-…

If you prefer, a riveting podcast version of the paper. Thanks to @philomateo for generating this with #NotebookLM. 🤯

V happy that this study is now published in @eLife with nice reviews and a wonderful editorial assessment. Quantifying multimodal context (of spoken language) in naturalistic stimuli is not an easy task, but we hope this can provide some inspiration. 🧵#tab-content" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">elifesciences.org/reviewed-prepr…

⚡️New preprint!!

A large natural language processing sentiment analysis of the PubMed literature on drugs since the Controlled Substances Act investigating how the scientific discourse evolved in the past~5.5 decades

Excited for this chapter by Ravi Das and me (yes, the reference will be Doss & Das) on pharmacology and episodic memory to be out and appear in the Encyclopedia of the Human Brain. Much love to the editor @CharanRanganath for asking me to write this.

Thank you, Japan 🇯🇵, and thank you, @ASSC27tokyo @theASSC ! 🙏 A heartfelt thank you to all the amazing souls who engaged with my poster on Reddit data mining for insights into the phenomenology of mystical experiences using BIG data. 🧠✨
This trip holds a special place in my heart. Growing up in Japan as a little girl and now returning as an adult researcher to the University of Tokyo is truly powerful. 🌸👩🔬 Linking life’s lineages and closing the circle... #ASSC #Neuroscience #Japan #Research #Phenomenology #BigData

Wrote a piece for the @MAPS bulletin about music and clinical psychedelic research with @LeorRoseman
