lifehack: to reduce anxiety and increase productivity you want to up the bioavailability of dopamine in your prefrontal cortex and downregulate the synergistic effects of acetylcholine and cortisol on the striatum

"When you listen to a piece of music that really moves you...it gives you a chill..it causes you to suddenly feel transported; you've just dumped a whole load of dopamine in your ventral striatum." Dr Francis Collins

The striatum is a key region involved in substance use disorders and movement disorders, and these new tools provide a way to target specific populations within this important brain region. Congrats to the Allen Institute for Brain Science team on building this resource!

Amazing new tools for targeting the striatum across species, from mouse to primate from my colleagues in Brain Science at the @alleninstitute.bsky.socialwww.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

L'interview est en ligne et à nouveau des dizaines de personnes qui défendent Jancovici et le "striatum". Ce n'est pas de notre faute s''il véhicule une thèse fausse dans sa BD le monde sans fin. Ce n'est pas de notre faute si cela n'a jamais été corrigé, sur 5 pages. bonpote.com/albert-moukh...

Receipt of a reward is composed of affective and informative components, which are often intertwined

CAN'T TALK NOW BABE I'M BUSY DUMPING A WHOLE BUNCH OF DOPAMINE INTO MY VENTRAL STRIATUM!!!
