THOUGHT PROCESS​
In this paper, scientists investigated the link between sharing thoughts and feelings (often seen through social media platforms) and various neural mechanisms associated with reward. I portrayed social media as neurotransmitters to represent their role in the reward pathway. The background neurons were modelled using NeuronBuild by taking real neuron data from NeuroMorpho. All the other assets were modelled in Maya 2018.
