Thrilled to see this paper in Nature Human Behaviour after years of work by Drs. Nick Diamond and Stephanie Simpson with Drs. Stuart Fogel, Daniel Baena, and Brian J Murray. Baycrest Rotman Research

Aging is an energetic process The Brain-body Energy Conservation (BEC) model of aging predicts that the brain can slow down energetically expensive functions to prolong lifespan nature.com/articles/s4358… A new paper in mice shows that the brain can slow down biological aging by

Kollenburg et al. review 70 studies on the cingulum, highlighting its role in chronic pain and complex anatomy. Variability in structural models complicates neurosurgical targeting. Standardisation is needed for better treatment. Read at: buff.ly/o99mK6m Erkan Kurt

Chronic stress can dysregulate the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, contributing to depression, anxiety, PTSD, and cognitive impairment (McEwen et al., 2015)​. However, some individuals demonstrate resilience—a neurobiological adaptation that mitigates stress-related

Of >105,000 participants with 30-year follow-up, only 9.3% achieved healthy aging (age 70, w/o any chronic diseases). Their diet was significantly associated with this outcome🧵 Nature Medicine

“Waiting Hurts” Giulia Mesaroli is talking about wait-times in pain clinics. Patients wait long times to be seen by a specialist We need to do better! Giulia is developing a screening tool. Well done Giulia. #CanadianPain25 #chronicPain #CRPS #ComplexRegionalPainSyndrome

Thrilled to share our new paper in Nature Human Behaviour! nature.com/articles/s4156… We show that combining biological 🧬 and psychosocial 📋 data offers a much stronger, more reliable path to predicting pain and diagnosis. 🧵

Our new Nature Human Behaviour paper shows why we need a holistic pain biomarker framework. ML on blood tests, brain/bone imaging & genetics predicts clinical diagnoses but falls short on subjective pain. Adding psychosocial (mood, sleep, stress) boosts both. shorturl.at/vxxeO
