New academic year, new Holmes Lab photo! Check us out at holmeslab.yale.edu 🎉

V useful paper by @bttyeo @Leon_Oo1 & @csabaorban out in @Nature. Scan for longer if you want to predict behaviour using fMRI and save $. Check out their calculator: thomasyeolab.github.io/OptimalScanTim…. Also another great use of our TCP data set (pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11…).
1/11 Excited to share our @Naturestudy led by @Leon_Oo1 @csabaorban @ZShaoshi doi.org/10.1038/s41586… It is well-known that AI performance scales with logarithm of sample size (Kaplan, McCandlish 2020), but in many domains, sample size can be # participants or # measurements...
Thrilled to share our latest work just published in @Nature where we looked into the optimal fMRI scan time for brain-wide association studies (BWAS)! Full thread below 👇

While the world burns, we cook up a new preprint! doi.org/10.1101/2025.0… Biophysical modeling is a key tool to derive mechanistic insights into the brain. These models are governed by biologically meaningful parameters (unlike deep neural nets), but the dirty secret ... 1/N

We have stopped accepting applications for this role. Thank you to everyone who has applied!
The Holmes Lab is #hiring a full-time research assistant/predoc! Our work focuses on functional brain networks-- how they change, how they are impacted in psychiatric illness, and much more! Please rt and reach out if you're interested👀 Find out more holmeslab.rutgers.edu🧠
Raising children protects the brain against aging, according to an analysis of @UK_Biobank data. As benefits were observed in men and women, they are likely caused by the mental workout of caregiving, rather than pregnancy. In PNAS: ow.ly/FkJC50VbVCg
