I write about the neuroscience of being fully human: brain rhythms, mental health, embodiment, and what it actually takes to thrive.
Follow @FlavioFrohlich if that's the conversation you want more of.

You are not a processor running on meat.
You are a rhythmic, relational, embodied being whose brain evolved for connection, movement, and meaning ... not optimization!
Act accordingly.
Frohlich Lab retweeted
We are more than biological LLMs.
AI processes tokens. You process life through a body that breathes, moves, aches, and desires.
We've built a culture that celebrates the brain and shames everything below the neck.
For many of us, this is a deep source of pain and confusion.

đź§ đź§µ THREAD: What acetylcholine & norepinephrine teach us about learning, growth, and change
This year, the @FrohlichLab turns 15. 🎉
Over that time, we’ve published 100+ papers on brain dynamics, neuromodulation, and neurotechnology.
In this thread, I want to offer something different:
👉 a fresh, unifying, and slightly provocative perspective, starting with our first paper
Here’s what we learned ↓

New in Brain Stimulation! @SteinAthena & colleagues introduce tECS - transcranial endogenous current stimulation, using personalized EEG-derived waveforms to target aperiodic brain activity. A novel approach in neuromodulation.

Fifteen years after demonstrating the power of low-amplitude endogenous electric fields on a neural network in a dish, I am excited to introduce tECS - fabulous work with star postdoc @SteinAthena in the @FrohlichLab @UNCPsychiatry - huge thank you to @BBRFoundation

tECS builds on foundational cortical slice electrophysiology by @FlavioFrohlich showing that weak endogenous electric fields can entrain neural activity.
Thank you to @BBRFoundation for making this possible. Also grateful to @_aaausa for supporting my time in the US!

Excited to share our latest publication introducing a new class of brain stimulation: transcranial endogenous current stimulation (tECS) ⚡️

Introducing transcranial endogenous current stimulation (#tECS) - pioneered at the Carolina Center for Neurostimulation @UNCPsychiatry, published @brainstimj
Built on foundational work by @FlavioFrohlich in 2010: cell.com/neuron/fulltext/S08…
Thank you @BBRFoundation!

We are excited to share these cool results from @GraceRoss98 's dissertation. Lots of implications for targeting networks of cognitive control with rhythmic brain stimulation. Make sure to follow @GraceRoss98 as she has more good stuff in the pipeline!
‼️Excited to share that our newest paper from the @FrohlichLab is now published!!
This paper includes results from my dissertation work, suggesting that frontoparietal theta synchrony is a promising therapeutic target for attention disorders.

Inside the brain and ready to spark some new connections - come chat with me about brain network changes following #tACS treatment in #MDD at poster # F150 this afternoon at #SOBP2025!

@FrohlichLab – at Toronto, Ontario
Research Participants wanted! We’re recruiting for our study “Inter-brain Synchronization of the Therapist-Client Dyad in Psychotherapy: Pilot EEG Study in Students with Mild to Moderate Depression Symptoms” UNC IRB#: 22-1422, P.I: Flavio Frohlich, PhD. If you’re interested, please check out the flyer and complete the pre-screen to see if you’re eligible.

Excited to have three clinical trials for depression and anxiety in our @NeuroStimCtr @UNCPsychiatry currently enrolling participants. carolinaneurostimulation.org…
It is happening right now - our very own @GraceRoss98 defending her PhD thesis. Awesome work with big translational implications for non-pharmacological treatments of attention challenges. @NeuroStimCtr

Thank you @MarkZylka Follow us over at @NeuroStimCtr to learn about upcoming clinical trials of non-invasive đź§ stimulation. We will be posting updates and recruitment info. @UNCPsychiatry
Outstanding! Two UNC Neurosci Center faculty (Eva Anton and @FrohlichLab) as well as a UNC Perl prize recipient (@doristsao).

Huge news!!! Congratulations to @FlavioFrohlich and everyone in our lab @FrohlichLab for this amazing accomplishment!
For years, the @FrohlichLab has been developing and tweaking an innovative brain stimulation device that can help treat depression and anxiety.
Now, after clinical trials and support from the @FDA, the device is one step closer to patient use.
