In a new study, researchers from @Brain_Circuits and colleagues mapped lesions that cause psychosis to a brain circuit. The study was published in @JAMAPsych. Read more: massgeneralbrigham.org/en/about/newsr… @PinesAndrew
Everyone in the @Brain_Circuits and @BWHPsyResidency, where I have grown up as a clinician-scientist for the past 4 years. Cannot say enough about how great the environment is here. Particular shout out @foxmdphd @andreashorn_ @MargoFunkMD1
Thank you for highlighting our work! massgeneralbrigham.org/en/about/newsr…
What brain regions are involved in causing psychotic symptoms? Take a moment away from the existential dread about the future of science, and join me in this summary of some incredibly cool stuff that could help patients! 1/n🧵 jamanetwork.com/journals/jamap…
We could not be more thrilled to welcome this amazing class to Brigham!

In a new study, researchers from @MassGenBrigham and colleagues investigated recovery after visits to a large behavioral health system. The study was published in an @APA_Publishing journal. Read more: psychiatryonline.org/doi/10.1176/ap…
Most viewed in the last 7 days from @JAMAPsych: Study identified a human brain circuit aligning with the posterior subiculum subfield of the hippocampus that is causally implicated in symptoms of psychosis. ja.ma/3QszAGU
Join us for the 2nd session in the Back to the Basics of #MedEd Series: "Before You Teach, Know Your Learner" Led by @DrFMeyer and Eric Lee, MD. On Thursday, Dec 12th, 2024, from 12pm-1pm EST on Zoom More info here: bit.ly/B2BMedEd @BWHPsyResidency @BrighamResearch
Amazing scientist and (Brigham) mentor!
Out @NatureNeuro: Network localization of brain stim targets for PTSD. TLDR: Lesions connected to this circuit REDUCE risk of PTSD in Vets. Also tested with fMRI and TMS. Free link: rdcu.be/dUVTY With @foxmdphd @NoahSPhilipMD @davidcarreon @AArulpragasam @MoreyLab
Residents went on our annual retreat in New Hampshire this weekend!


One more open house! The theme is the research track, but everyone is welcome to come hang and talk about anything. Register here: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…

Just performed the 1st🥇 ACCELERATED rTMS 🧠🧲🧲🧲🧲🧲🧠@VUMChealth, which was also in psychosis. So very proud of my lab @VUMCPsych and taking the next step toward translating circuit-based interventions into the clinic
5 years ago, on the heels of 28andMe, our team designed a new precision imaging experiment: scanning an individual’s brain throughout her entire pregnancy. We are excited to share that these findings are out today in @NatureNeuro! nature.com/articles/s4159…
Just as exciting, the second CME course, Medical Psychiatry: Comprehensive Update cmecatalog.hms.harvard.edu/medical-psychi…
Two exciting upcoming CME courses, both taught by leaders and outstanding educators in their fields. Neuropsychiatry: A Comprehensive Update: cmecatalog.hms.harvard.edu/neuropsychiatr…
Back when the world’s computers were working, PGY-2s, Levy and Jenn put together a fantastic Safe Space Building Session for our Residency Program!!

Happy residency new year to all who celebrate! On Thursday, Dr. David Silbersweig gave our final Grand Rounds of the academic year, the Jon Borus Award Lecture, on a groundbreaking area of his work – “Toward a Social Neuropsychiatry in the Age of Brain Imaging and AI.”

Rest in Power, Marty 🙏❤️🩹💫#NeurologyProud
This evening we unveiled the portrait of the late Martin A. “Marty” Samuels, M.D. in the Wolf Conference Center. This portrait will hang in the Department of Neurology @BrighamWomens. Thank you to Warren and Lucia Prosperi for their hard work on this incredible piece!
2 South Senior @EvelinaSterina made the most of the beautiful weather and held didactics outside! She lectured med students and interns on alcohol and opiate withdrawal, including many of the guidelines pioneered by leaders in addiction medicine at MGB.
