New Nature Communications paper! We developed the first MRI-based atlas mapping neurotransmitter disruptions in stroke, opening doors for personalized treatments. Full article: rdcu.be/edHcH #Neuroscience #StrokeResearch #MRI #Neurotransmitters
New preprint! Using simulation-based inference #SBI to map orientation #uncertainty and perform brain probabilistic #tractography. Work led by @josepemanzano in collaboration with @jakhmack @deismic_ @CorSchroeder @tkypraios @ppjgoncalves. @ERC_Research

Great work by @alirezamnk and colleagues published in @NatureComms on the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on brain ageing! @UoNresearch @UKBIOBANK @SPMIC_UoN @NottmBRC nature.com/articles/s4146…
🧵1/ New study alert: Our latest research shows that living through the COVID-19 pandemic—even without infection—was linked to signs of accelerated brain ageing. Published today in Nature Communications. 🔗 nature.com/articles/s4146…
Our N3 Centre for Neurotechnology, Neuromodulation, and Neurotherapeutics has officially launched at @UniofNottingham #neuromodulation #imaging #focusedultrasound @MedicineUoN @notts_psych @FUSFoundation nottingham.ac.uk/news/centre-la…
🧠 Just out in Nature: A human brain map of mitochondrial diversity. A powerful collaboration with Mosharov and @MitoPsychoBio. Big step toward bridging cell biology and neuroimaging! 🔗 nature.com/articles/s4158… 🧬 #MitoBrainMap #neuroscience
We are soon starting our 5-year MRC programme grant on novel noninvasive ultrasound or magnetic stimulation for brain and mental health (see press release link). Watch out for our job advertisement for a postdoctoral fellow in neuromodulation later on... nottingham.ac.uk/news/new-resea…
📢 We are excited to announce that the Handbook of Diffusion MR Tractography is finally out! 🎉 Huge thanks to all the authors and the ever growing tractography community at IST @tractography and DSG-ISMRM @DiffusionISMRM !! From @flaviodellacqua, @maxdescoteaux, @Alex_Leemans
Researchers have identified 13 proteins in the blood that predict how quickly or slowly a person’s brain ages compared with the rest of their body go.nature.com/3ZrYZEK

How to write a grant? 1. Write it for the reviewer, not you, the applicant. 2. Communicate in stories. 3. Make your story cohesive—leave no puzzling gaps. 4. Make your story resonate to keep the reviewer reading. 5. Accept chance and noise in peer-review. pnas.org/doi/epub/10.10…
🚨 Postdoctoral position @OxfordWIN - deadline Oct 4th🚨 This is about sensitising MRI to cell type to explore neuroplastic changes 🧠. You would help develop and implement a molecular (& cell-specific) MRI technique based on the BOLD signal.
📢WE'RE HIRING: @OxfordWIN are looking for a new Postdoctoral Research Scientist to join their team. More information & to apply: tinyurl.com/2u82dpcp
Great presentations from @SAssimopoulos @josepemanzano @francescodanto @jennahanmer and Andrea Torchi @bicismrm 2024. Thank you @SPMIC_UoN for organising and all presenters and attendees for a great conference!
Massive congratulations to @jennahanmer for winning the 2024 @bicismrm award for innovative methods in preclinical imaging, for her work on rodent MRI, tissue clearing and light-sheet 3D microscopy! @SPMIC_UoN @OxfordWIN @unibirmingham
Our book on diffusion MRI tractography is now out: shop.elsevier.com/books/handbook… Enjoy!
Really exciting to have a dedicated society for our field! Massive thank you to the IST leadership team! Please support by joining for free 👇
Officially announcing the launch of the International Society for Tractography (IST)! The goal is to make fundamental advances in the field of #tractography coming from an interactive and diverse community willing to share knowledge. Free memberships! tractography.io
Amazing closing words from our local organiser Takuya Hayashi: “banri ikku [Miyamoto Musashi] - No matter how far you travel, the sky is one, and connects the world.” Thank you all! #FSLcourse @FSLeyes @OxfordWIN
Wonderful #FSLcourse 2024 and great teaching teammates! @OxfordWIN @FSLeyes
