This paper develops a statistics-driven workflow using stereoelectroencephalography to identify personalized deep brain stimulation targets through power analysis and effect size calculations.

This study investigates cue reactivity in dopamine neurons after opioids, finding that drug and natural reward cues elicit similar enhanced responses, challenging existing hypotheses about dopamine's role in relapse.

The paper shows that inhibitory chemogenetics using PSAM4-GlyR may activate D1-MSNs instead of inhibiting them, highlighting issues with using chloride conductances for neuronal inhibition.

The paper demonstrates that GluD1R functions as a constitutively active ion channel in dorsal raphe neurons, mediating 1-AR-induced inward current and pacemaker firing.
