Info theory offers powerful measures for capturing complexity & interaction among elements of a complex system, like the brain! 🧠 Here's our new unified reference for key info-theoretic time series measures ft. 📊 visuals, ➗equations, & 💬descriptions: arxiv.org/abs/2505.13080
New preprint! Why are long-range connectomic interactions in the cortex dominant in shaping dynamics in some experiments but apparently negligible in others? We (w/ Rishi M, @eli_j_muller) address this by studying a new hybrid model of cortical dynamics. arxiv.org/abs/2506.19800
Grab a pint & learn some Aussie slang!
‼️ATTENTION‼️ Social night is tonight 8pm at Paddo Tavern!! Come for a relaxing night and unwind after a brain stimulating day! 🫠 All are welcome!! #OHBM2025
Benchmarking methods for mapping functional connectivity in the brain | doi.org/10.1038/s41592… What is the best FC metric? led by @liuzhenqi0303 in @naturemethods ⤵️
🧠 How to measure #FunctionalConnectivity using #fMRI? And what is the ground truth? 🎯 We aimed to target both questions in our recent work published in #NeuroImage using data from @HumanConnectome and @OpenNeuroOrg 🤓 To read: doi.org/10.1016/j.neur… #Neuroimaging #BrainMapping
📜🪇[PUBLISHED]: NEW PREPRINT!🪇📜 I am incredibly excited to announce that we have published our paper on how "Dynamical independence reveals anaesthetic specific fragmentation of emergent structure in neural dynamics". biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Strap in! 1/n
Not sure which measure of network coupling to use in your fMRI analysis? Peep our latest PP led by K Pavlovich with @jchrispang comparing 10 different FC (+1 DCM) metrics in terms of robustness to motion and sensitivity to brain-behaviour correlations: tinyurl.com/yc3x68yv
New paper! We introduce an efficient set of statistical features for fMRI time series (calibrated on mouse manipulation experiments and tested on mouse and human data): catchaMouse16. Paper: doi.org/10.52294/001c.… Code: github.com/DynamicsAndNeu…
Alam et al. develop a canonical time-series feature set for characterizing biologically informative dynamical patterns in fMRI: doi.org/10.52294/001c.… @bendfulcher @fMRI_today @mallarchkrvrty1 @OHBM
🚨Wednesday evening is Social Night! 🚨 Come join us at the Paddo Tavern 25th June for the Open Science Gala & SP Social Night. Kickoff at 8pm! See you all there! #OHBM2025 Thanks to the following sponsors @QIMRB_Institute, @childmindinst, @TheNeuro_MNI, @WuTsaiYale
🎉 The final #IamOHBM before #OHBM2025! Giulia Baracchini and friends share what the OHBM community means to them—both personally and professionally. Don't miss this heartfelt send-off as we head into the meeting! 💬🧠
Looking forward to giving my tutorial at @NetSciConf tomorrow on "Inferring network models from multivariate time-series data: Philosophy, approaches and considerations". Slides and python notebook are posted at github.com/jlizier/netinf… for those wanting to play along
Have recent changes led to uncertainty in your future scientific career? Wonder it's like in Australia? Good news! Monash's is seeking to hire talented EMCRs from other countries. Come join a wonderful community of brain mappers & modellers! monash.edu/research/emerge
🏁 Big news from #Cogitate!🏁 We’re proud to deliver the 1st part of our promised open multimodal dataset: iEEG data from n=38, across 3 centers, collected under a unified protocol. 📄Paper: doi.org/10.1038/s415 📀Data: arc-cogitate.com/data-release 💻Code: github.com/Cogitate-conso…
How does the brain reorganize in the context of age and AD? Are functional changes in age and AD similar? Are these changes dynamic across the age/AD spectrum? We unpack these questions in a sample of N=973 with AD biomarkers Preprint: tinyurl.com/ymv8s7h8 1/ ⬇️🧵
