Can a single dose of #Oxytocin reduce #fear in naturalistic #real-life situations? Our study in Advanced Science: it can, specifically in #social contexts. mmersive fMRI movie plus placebo-controlled design, intranasal oxytocin reduced subjective fear during social fear scenarios

How does our #social #brain inherently shape - and be shaped by - interactions with #AI ? Some ideas from #neuroscience now out in @NeuroCellPress #chatgpt #deepseek sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

In our recent paper, we identified two MDD subtypes via normative modeling that showed distinct neural representations during empathic processing, despite demonstrating no significant differences during implicit face processing. doi.org/10.1038/s41398…

Our recent work, which aims to investigate the cognitive and neural mechanisms underlying the differences in suppression between self-related and other-related memories, has been published in IJCHP. Please refer to doi.org/10.1016/j.ijch…

Our recent work, which investigated hypoconnectivity in the structure-function coupling of white matter in autism spectrum disorder, has been published in Molecular Autism. Here is the link: doi.org/10.1186/s13229…

Who is the best person to talk to about #AI – a computer scientist, a psychologist or a philosopher? Learning about AI is important, because it is now everywhere. Using AI, scientists make breakthroughs once considered impossible. AI is changing how we create art, socialise, study. AI skills are becoming a must-have on a CV. The University of Hong Kong is at the forefront of the AI revolution. Our science editor interviewed HKU’s researchers and educators who work with AI in a wide range of disciplines - from philosophy and filmmaking to mathematics and computer science. To learn more about what AI is, what it can do, and what we can do using AI, follow this new series: Conversations about AI. #HKU #香港大學 #UniversityofHongKong #AI #AIsecurity #AIvshuman #AIpower #LLM #Chatbot #ChatGPT

Our recent paper, which identifies an Autism Spectrum Disorder subtype that is more responsive to chronic oxytocin treatment, has been published in Translational Psychiatry. Here is the link: doi.org/10.1038/s41398…

Our new work is out in Computers in Human Behavior! Thank you @bn_becker, @ChrisMontag77, @WeihuaZhaoUU, and all co-authors! 50 days free access to download the article: authors.elsevier.com/a/1j8EB_G-sG2f…

HKU @bn_becker and collaborators @stephenXinQZ @ChrisMontag77 show for the first time that the same brain regions that form the basis of habitual behaviour also mediate Internet addiction. More: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

join us in September on the Chinese #Neuroscience Society meeting for #AI #decoding of #brain and #translation across species with @vitaminbrain and @bttyeo Shaozheng Qin, Yi Luo and Zhen Liang cns.org.cn/2024/program07…

Disgust keeps us away from harmful substances, but are brain pathways involved the same that protect us from harmful social interactions? @bn_becker & collaborators combined fMRI & machine-learning based modelling to answer this. nature.com/articles/s4156…

The #brain mechanisms of #disgust generalize across #distate #social #conscious disgust experience #emotion. Now out in @NatureHumBehav – big congrats to @ganxianyang @FengZhou_ @HKUniversity @UESTC1956 nature.com/articles/s4156…

🤩My first work now out in medRxiv, supervised by @bn_becker We found that oxytocin reduced subjective fear in naturalistic social contexts by enhancing cross-scale neural activity, helping us understand the mechanism and treatment of #anxiety #PTSD medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

Our team’s new out in IJCHP 10.1016/j.ijchp.2024.100462. We combined computational modeling and fNIRS-based dynamic functional connectivity to interstage the potential behavioral and neural mechanisms for taVNS to enhance emotional inhibitory control. Congrats to @Thelma_Zhu.
