In honor of #RareDiseaseDay and the mom of an amazing kiddo with one, I want to highlight the amazing organization working to improve the lives of people and families with RASopathies (like ours). (Full disclosure, I am lucky enough to be a Board member of this organization too).

Congratulations to these two outstanding physician-neuroscientists! Many people now are familiar with the fascinating fundamental research of Michelle Monje🎗️ 🟦, but most people probably don't know she is a truly great physician. I'm fortunate to be inspired by her every day, in

Our preprint detailing our novel approach to identifying personalized neuromodulation targets to treat severe, refractory OCD using brain mapping is now out on MedRxiv. Here, we describe our first SEEG-guided DBS case for OCD at UCSF: medrxiv.org/cgi/content/sh…

New npj Digital Medicine research from #StanfordCDH's Jiyeong Kim, PhD, MPH & team analyzed 528k patient messages, developing AI for tailored diabetes care. AI is valued for education & admin support, but deeper data integration is seen as risky. go.nature.com/4jKaVKB

Our focused ultrasound (FUS) #neuromodulation paper now out in molecularpsychiatry! Low-intensity FUS attenuates #amygdala fMRI BOLD signal. Broad therapeutic effects in patients with once-daily FUS. Next up, the RCT! Thanks to One Mind, who funded this! rdcu.be/ejcYD

New paper in JAMA Network Open! We found that individuals with high amygdala threat reactivity at baseline showed greater normalization of brain function and improved threat processing under 120mg MDMA. A step toward personalized MDMA therapies!

Xue Zhang Congratulations Xue Zhang for leading this stratified precision medicine trial showing MDMA improves threat processing in a biotype with high amygdala activity at baseline - made possible with an A-team of incredible supporters, collaborators and investigators Laura Hack, Claire

🧵1/7 New paper out! We explored how cognitive behavioral therapy (BIT+) affects brain activity & inhibitory task performance in hoarding disorder. Thankful for Carolyn Rodriguez Leanne Williams, PhD pines pines Stanford PMHW 🧠 Xue Zhang mentorship! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Congratulations Paula on your first first-author paper — so well deserved! 👏 Exciting to see this important work on BIT+ treatment mechanisms of cognitive control circuit in hoarding disorder out in the world! 🧠✨

Congrats Paula!!
