Happy to see our new paper 📰 out:
Social interactions in isolated, confined, and extreme environments: A study of Antarctic winter teams using wearable sensors | PNAS pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.25…
@Team_Schmutz @UZH_ch @unibern @Uniklinikum_Wue
during extended stays of small expert teams in confined extreme environments, social interaction and team coherence decrease, while loneliness, paranoid ideation, and team conflicts increase. Surprisingly, intense social interaction was associated with more paranoid ideation.
New paper alert:
Much insight from a simple measure of motor control and general fitness:

Our @PNASNews paper shows distinct areas in the primary motor cortex are involved in psychomotor behaviors. Orchestration of complex movement is impaired and could become a TMS🧲target

Our exciting RCT is out. We combined rTMS with group psychotherapy in psychosis to improve nonverbal communication and social functioning. The combination improved social functioning that was maintained six months after the trial.

We thought we knew the primary motor cortex. Turns out that functional organization is more complex. The intereffector regions in M1 are altered in psychosis with psychomotor slowing and connectivity is linked to complex behaviors.
