Evolutionary explanations for morality and committed relationships are a huge advance. Are they useful for psychiatry? I share my hopes and hesitations in this 30 min. video. Thanks to @RealAdamHunt @RiadhAbed1 @ISEMPH

The results are consistent with previous cross-sectional studies demonstrating a small effect of D2R on alcohol use indicating that prior D2R is not clinically useful to identify social drinkers at risk of later development of AUD.

In assessing PET data (n=67) in healthy individuals and subsequent alcohol use and related factors at a 8-16 year follow-up, we demonstrate no support for a large effect between D2R availability and later alcohol use nor for the majority of the alcohol-related factors.

Excited to share a new paper on Striatal Dopamine D2 receptor availability as a predictor in the development of alcohol use disorder (AUD) in Addiction: https://t.co/6Rxnw66ktM w/ N. J-Lindström, @H_I_now, @granvillejmath, P. P-Sigray, J. Franck, J. Borg, and @SimonCervenka

Background and aims Whereas striatal dopamine D2 receptor (D2R) availability has shown to be altered in individuals with alcohol use disorder (AUD) and in healthy individuals with a family history...
Low striatal dopamine D2 receptor availability may not be a strong predictor in the development of alcohol use disorder @simonjangard

I enjoyed Schrödinger’s little book on What is Life, which nicely sketches “The Striking Contrast” between the physics of nonliving and living matter - capable of acting in unprecedented ways. But did anyone else get baffled by the way it concludes?

Fun collaboration testing how oxytocin and dopamine influence neural prediction errors during prosocial and self-benefitting learning 🙂 with Myrthe Jensen, Ellen de Bruijn (not on twitter) and @DrJoCutler 👇
New collaborative preprint led by Myrthe Jansen & Ellen de Bruijn @LeidenPsy with Patricia Lockwood @thepsychologist & me @TheCHBH We show oxytocin & dopamine change neural signals (PEs) during learning to benefit oneself & others, compared to placebo https://t.co/lFWXfHNPq7
