Oxytocin Reduces Subjective Fear in Naturalistic Social Contexts via Enhancing Top‐Down Middle Cingulate Amygdala Regulation and Brain‐Wide Fear Representations

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This double‐blind, placebo‐controlled study demonstrates that intranasal oxytocin reduces subjective fear in immersive, naturalistic social (but not non‐social) contexts. Concomitant fMRI reveals that oxytocin enhances middle cingulate activity and amygdala connectivity while it modulates network‐level connectivity and attenuates reactivity of a brain ...

Stacking Interventions Enhances Carbon Removals and Profitability of Livestock Production Systems

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The study indicates that stacking multiple interventions aimed at maximising soil organic carbon (SOC) sequestration and enteric methane (CH4) reductions realizes greater abatement and profit do any singular intervention, especially when SOC sequestration accounts for a significant proportion of greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) mitigation. Abstract While

Dedifferentiation and Transfer in Executive Function and Math Ability Following a Five‐Year Abacus Training in Schoolchildren

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
While cognitive development typically exhibits differentiation, marked by decreasing inter‐domain correlations, this study demonstrates that five‐year abacus training is associated with de‐differentiation of executive function and mathematical ability in school‐aged children.
