New Research: The Hidden Brain: Uncovering Previously Overlooked Brain Regions by Employing Novel Preclinical Unbiased Network Approaches: A large focus of modern neuroscience has revolved around preselected brain regions of interest based… frontiersin.org/articles/10.33… #Neuroscience

#eNeuro: Focusing on specific brain regions when studying addiction simplifies research but may omit important insights. Adam Kimbrough et al. show that the entire mouse brain reorganizes during withdrawal, which may hinder communication between regions. eneuro.org/lookup/DOI/10.…

Curious how the brain is altered during withdrawal from psychostimulants? Olivier George team found a shift in the broad organization of the brain in the form of reduced modularity. Congrats Adam Kimbrough, Lauren Smith and Sierra Simpson. eneuro.org/content/early/…

Well done Adam Kimbrough Marsida Kallupi, PharmD/PhD Sierra Simpson Lauren Smith UC San Diego Department of Psychiatry and our collaborator Andres Collazo from Caltech ! Interested in the effects of drugs on the brain? We have some cool data making us rethink what drugs do to our brain. A quick 🧵
