The encoding of interoceptive-based predictions by the paraventricular nucleus of the thalamus D2R+ neurons

Briana Machen, Sierra N. Miller, Alison W. Xin, Carine Lampert, Lauren Assaf, Julia Tucker, Sarah Herrell, Francisco Pereira, Gabriel C. Loewinger, B. Sofia Beas

This study identifies D2R+ neurons in the paraventricular nucleus of the thalamus as critical for interoceptive predictions and behavior guided by physiological states.

Capturing instantaneous neural signal-behavior relationships with concurrent functional mixed models

Alison W. Xin, Erjia Cui, Francisco Pereira, Gabriel C. Loewinger

The paper introduces concurrent functional linear mixed models (cFLMMs) to analyze neural signals and behavior in real-time, showing they reveal associations missed by traditional methods.
