#JNeursci: Concurrently recording brain activity while people judged motion direction of targets in noisy displays, revealed that participants’ perceptual biases emerged late in the decision-making process, after early sensory processing was complete.

Thrilled to share our recent review in @sfnjournals.bsky.social ALS and Huntington Disease: Unraveling the Connections between TDP-43 and Huntingtin. Here we discuss links between HD & ALS. Review & cover art come from the multitalented MSc student @cailyncreative.bsky.social

Screenshot from the JNeursci Webpage showing the cover art. This artwork portrays a fictional person with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Framing their face is a network of neurons that highlights two motor neurons. One neuron extending from the mouth down to the hands symbolizes two of the major motor functions affected by ALS: bulbar and spinal. The second neuron forms from a single tear that represents the fear those with the disease endure. As this neuron extends to the hands, the connection is severed, symbolizing both the disconnect between the brain and muscles caused by neuron death and the determination of those affected not to be defined by their disease. The bound hands emphasize the physical constraints imposed by ALS while the distance between the hands conveys perseverance. Among the wildflowers shown is the blue cornflower, an emblematic symbol of ALS representing hope and resilience. See the review article by Cailyn Perry and Dale Martin for information on mechanistic links between ALS and Huntington's disease. Cover image: Cailyn Perry.
