关键词:社会情感、理论框架神经科学家也是心理学家的David Marr认为,视觉信息的加工,涉及三个不同的层次:计算(computation)、算法(algorithm)、实现(implementation)。目前任教于加州大学圣塔芭芭拉分校的于宏波博士与其团队在过去十几年间专注社会情感的研究,他们认为David Marr的三层框架也适用于理解社会情感。以内疚感为例:计算层面:内疚感在社会互动中扮演什么角色?算法层面:内疚感的产生涉及哪些认知过程?实现层面:相关认知过程在大脑中是如何实现的?相关综述近期发表在Nature Reviews Psychology上。本期节目,于宏波博士介绍了他的这篇综述文章,以及发表背后的故事。文章指路:A levels-of-analysis framework for studying social emotionshttps://www.nature.com/articles/s44159-024-00285-100:00:59 嘉宾介绍00:02:51 研究介绍00:21:09 用计算机理论来理解社会情感00:24:14 实验室氛围更重要,还是研究者自身努力更重要00:30:18 导师、同门合作对投稿的影响00:35:27 综述文章和实验文章在投稿上的区别00:40:42 期刊选择00:42:26 自荐审稿人00:45:11 高产文章的秘诀00:50:23

S1E7 刘烯琴|大家都焦虑你还焦虑什么
关键词:焦虑症、机器学习、脑成像、神经表征焦虑症是世界上最常见的精神障碍之一,世卫组织数据,2019年有3.01亿人患有焦虑症。根据最新版精神疾病诊断与统计手册DSM-5的分类,焦虑症包含以焦虑为主要症状的广泛性焦虑症(即无固定对象的过度担忧),以及以恐惧为主要症状的社交恐惧症、惊恐障碍和特殊恐惧症(如恐高症等)。那么焦虑与恐惧是一回事吗?本期节目,嘉宾刘烯琴博士介绍了她近期作为一作发表在Nature Communications上的研究,同时我们也邀请到了研究团队负责人也是文章通讯作者Benjamin Becker教授为听众答疑。研究团队将机器学习应用于脑成像数据,识别了不确定威胁预期诱发焦虑主观体验的神经表征,揭示了大脑中的焦虑体验与恐惧体验并不相同。该发现可为理解焦虑主观体验的神经基础及改善焦虑症的治疗提供新启示。文章指路:A neural signature for the subjective experience of threat anticipation under uncertainty:https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-024-45433-6本节目由 BrainPod脑锅工作室 与 华人计算精神病学联盟 联合出品。邮件:naoguo@outlook.com小红书:BrainPod脑锅

S1E5 高晓雪|十年磨一剑
关键词:社会情绪、负债感社会情绪这个词大家可能相对陌生,但在日常生活中我们一定有这样的体验:我们会因为他人的善意帮助感到感激,会因为伤害他人感到内疚,这些在社会交互中产生的情绪被称为社会情绪。这些情绪不仅会给我们带来正性或者负性的体验,更重要的,他们可以帮助我们适应复杂的社会环境。然而,社会情绪相比于基本情绪、注意或者记忆等基本认知的研究是非常少的,这主要是由于社会情绪研究的难点,比如难真实诱发、难量化操纵、无动物模型。本期节目,嘉宾高晓雪博士介绍了她发表在Nature Communications上的研究,她和她的团队如何结合多种研究手段探究负债感的心理和认知机制,如何解决社会情绪难以在实验室中真实诱发和定量测量等问题。文章指路:The psychological, computational, and neural foundations of indebtedness: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-023-44286-9本节目由 BrainPod脑锅工作室 与 华人计算精神病学联盟 联合出品。邮件:naoguo@outlook.com小红书:BrainPod脑锅

Brainpod: Evolution of the prefrontal cortex
In the past, there had been a school of thought that looked at evolution linearly — that is, you could in theory draw a line among mammals as they evolved, and so, say, rodent brains would basically be less evolved primate brains. That turns out not to be true; evolution is much more like a branching tree, and each branch then goes on to develop independently, sometimes in parallel. Some groups of animals such as primates can evolve features of their brains that other groups simply don’t have. And now, with advanced DNA sequencing, scientists have been able to determine whic...

BrainPod: Medial orbitofrontal cortex dopamine D1/D2 receptors
It’s known that dopamine transmission in the brain, particularly in the frontal lobes, can affect decision-making and can regulate choices when it comes to actions and rewards. But the effect of dopamine transition in the medial orbital frontal cortex hasn’t yet been studied, and dysfunction in that region has been implicated in a variety of mental illnesses, including obsessive compulsive disorder, certain kinds of depression, and even schizophrenia. And so a team of researchers led by Stan Floresco, professor of psychology at the University of British Columbia, used a rat model to study the effects of dopamine on two...

Brainpod - Addiction as a brain disease revised: why it still matters, and the need for consilience
Nearly 25 years ago, a paper was published about addiction that transformed the field. The director of the US National Institute on Drug Abuse at the time called addiction a “brain disease,” and he wrote a paper articulating this position and the agenda that it implied. It led to a focus on researching the brain to understand the mechanisms behind addiction, which could lead to novel treatments. And it meant that the country began to treat addiction as a disease, thus treating it within the medical system and removing the victim-blaming stigma. Over the years, there has been a pushback against the...

Interest is growing in the use of the psychedelic drug LSD for psychiatric research and even potentially for treatment. But placebo-controlled studies conducted to date have used just one dose of the drug—none have investigated the impacts of a variety of dosages within the same subjects. In addition, past studies did not use pharmaceutically-defined dosages of LSD, which has made verifying the effects of a particular dose difficult. To address this gap, Matthias Liechti, professor in the department of clinical pharmacology and toxicology at the University of Basel in Switzerland, and his colleagues conducted a study.

Brainpod - Effects of MDMA on attention to positive social cues and pleasantness of affective touch
The recreational drug MDMA, also known as Ecstasy or Molly, is particularly popular in social settings and raves, in large part because of how socially connected it makes the users feel. It’s being studied for use in psychotherapy —there’s a phase III clinical trial for the use of MDMA to treat PTSD. What’s clear is that the drug affects how users experience social interactions. But there are questions: Does the drug make positive social interactions feel better, or reduce the negative feelings associated with negative social interactions?

But most studies have focused on men, and models that have been developed nearly entirely focus on male subjects.

Bita Moghaddam is chair and professor of behavioral neuroscience at Oregon Health and Science University. She says that when dopamine is released, dopamine transporters take the dopamine back up into cells so it can be synthesized and broken down. So scientists had assumed that the dopamine that remained for those twenty minutes was just leftover dopamine...

Some papers showed that humans did retain neurogenesis into adulthood, but the issue has been debated. That debate was reignited just recently with the publication of two new studies.

Brainpod March 2018: Considerations for the Use of DREADDs in Behavioral Neuroscience
There's a technology that's proven to be increasingly useful in the past decade — it's called DREADD, or "designer receptors exclusively activated by designer drugs." The current approach is to create a designer receptor that is unlocked by the drug, clozapine-n-oxide, or CNO. Researchers have used it to study the function of populations of neurons or of particular pathways in the brains in rodents, by using the DREADD technique to turn on and off these neurons or pathways. However, last year, a paper published in the journal Science called the use of DREADDs into question. Some people interpreted the paper as an...

Many people who exercise regularly have experienced a so-called "runner's high," either a feeling of euphoria after exercise, or a feeling of happiness and well-being. Scientists have studied this and found that exercise does indeed improve mood and combat stress, for instance, but researchers at Finland's University of Turku wanted to know: Are endorphins being produced in and thus affecting the brain? To try to answer this question, the team labeled a drug that can bind to endorphin receptors in the brain and compete with endogenous endorphins. So if the study subjects were producing endorphins in the brain, the drug...

Because ASD is genetically linked to Fragile X syndrome, researchers noticed that in a mouse model, the drug arbaclofen reduced what would be core symptoms of autism, such as combatting social avoidance and improving social function. A randomized placebo-controlled trial was conducted to test this idea and the results were recently published in Neuropsychopharmacology. Listen to the latest BrainPod to...

Brainpod March 2017: The Gateway Hypothesis of Addiction
The gateway hypothesis, that early use of drugs such as tobacco, alcohol, or marijuana during adolescence progresses to harder drugs such as cocaine and heroin, was first proposed in the 1970s. In a recent publication of the journal Neuropsychopharmacology, Yasmin Hurd, Professor of Neuroscience at Mount Sinai, co-authored a commentary evaluating the research to date that either supports or challenges the gateway hypothesis. Listen to the latest BrainPod, Neuropsychopharmacology's official podcast, to hear more from Dr. Hurd! Article: https://www.nature.com/npp/journal/v42/n5/full/npp2016279a.html

Brainpod January 2017: Sex as a Biological Variable: Who, What, When, Why, and How
The National Institutes of Health recently published a statement requiring sex as a biological variable in studies. This is in part simply because it's good science, and in part to correct for decades in which both animal and human studies were largely conducted with male subjects. In their review paper responding to this statement, Dr. Tracy Bale and Dr. Neill Epperson discuss how sex has a direct impact on brain development, and how it results in a sexually dimorphic brain: meaning there are physical differences between males and females.

Brainpod: LSD Acutely Impairs Fear Recognition and Enhances Emotional Empathy and Sociality
LSD is not only a well-known psychedelic drug, but it was also studied extensively for its potential in psychotherapy in the early days of its use, about fifty years ago. Those early studies didn't necessarily meet today's standards for clinical trials, and previous research ended in the 1970s, due to changing regulations and a prohibition against LSD. Today, LSD is once again being studied for its therapeutic use, this time in a carefully controlled clinical setting. In a recent study, a team of researchers investigated LSD's effects on fear recognition, emotional empathy, and sociality. Listen to the latest BrainPod, Neuropsychopharmacology's...

Harnessing Smartphone-Based Digital Phenotyping to Enhance Behavioral and Mental Health
Smartphones have become nearly ubiquitous in the United States. These mini-computers that we carry around in our bags or pockets have the potential to dramatically influence the practice of medicine, including psychiatry. A team of researchers is currently investigating the use of smartphones for what's known as digital phenotyping, or the continuous monitoring of someone's status via a personal digital device, to enhance behavioral and mental health. Listen to this month's BrainPod to hear Dr. JP Onnela discuss how digital phenotyping is crucial for studying mental health disorders.

Brainpod: Women at the Podium: ACNP Strives to Reach Speaker Gender Equality at the Annual Meeting
Lately, scientists have begun to pay closer attention to the numbers of men and women who present at scientific meetings. Even in those fields where women are a majority, men dominate speaking roles; in 2011, a group of leaders in neuroscience fields decided to remedy this situation. By the 2015 annual meeting of the American College of Neuropsychopharmacology, women made up 70% of the plenary speaking roles. Listen to this month's Brainpod to hear Dr. Bita Moghaddam and Dr. Raquel Gur discuss the importance of women at the podium, how their approach was successful, and what challenges still remain. www.nature.com/npp...

Brainpod: Impact of Stress on the Brain: Pathology, Treatment and Prevention
"Impact of Stress on the Brain: Pathology, Treatment and Prevention," the 2016 issue of Neuropsychopharmacology Reviews, focuses on advances in our understanding of the impact of stress on the brain: From pathology to circuits, treatment to prevention. Emerging data from genetics, epigenetics, neural circuit and intergenerational models, animal models, and neuroimaging all suggest that stress affects the brain in a variety of dynamic and often long-lasting ways. The effects of these processes on developmental risk for pathology are particularly notable. www.nature.com/npp/index.html

Brainpod: Abuse of New Psychoactive Substances: Threats and Solutions
There has been a recent and notable increase in the non-medical use of new psychoactive substances (NPS), or "designer drugs." Unlike classic drugs of abuse, many NPS were initially developed for research purposes. In this podcast, Drs. Michael Baumann and Nora Volkow discuss the complexities of working with these substances and how, given their genesis, research with NPS could be considered "dual use;" or, potentially utilized for both beneficial and malicious purposes. www.nature.com/npp/index.html
