Media - you’ve fallen back into the 2016 pattern of becoming Trump’s talking piece. When you repeat his words without pointing out they are lies, and focus on the stories he wants you to cover, you are amplifying propaganda not reporting the news.

We found a psychedelic (DOI) altered neurovascular coupling and differential changed neuronal⚡️📉 vs hemodynamic🩸 📈 brain activity 🧠. These findings have grand implications for interpretation of psychedelic fMRI. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Joshua Siegel Adam Bauer Jordan McCall

We found that the psychedelic, DOI, markedly altered neurovacular coupling in a regionally specific manner. This effect has grand implications for fMRI, for instance, neuronal vs hemodynamic measures of resting state function connectivity massively differed.

Are perhaps some psychedelic fMRI observations a result of neurovascular, and not strictly neuronal, effects🤯!?
