It's out now doi.org/10.1016/j.neur…! Cross-species alignment based on the functional gradients using joint-embedding and revealed the evolutionary hierarchy.
Our latest work is online today @ScienceAdvances ➡️Brain connectivity in carriers of high risk mutations for #autism and #schizophrenia U-turns across adolescence (hyper -> hypo) ➡️This switch is driven by synaptic remodeling science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… Full explainer below 👇
➡️What's the significance of brain dysconnectivity in developmental disorders? ➡️And what are its underpinnings? To address these questions we mapped connectivity in carriers of high-risk mutations for autism and schizophrenia➡️tinyurl.com/ytuca74u Here's what we found🧵 1/n

Excited to share our recent work in Nature Methods! We've developed Neural Perturbational Inference (NPI), a data-driven approach that maps causal brain networks by virtually perturbing a surrogate brain model. nature.com/articles/s4159…
Thrilled to announce our study, “Connectional Axis of Individual Functional Variability: Patterns, Structural Correlates, and Relevance for Development and Cognition,” now published in @PNASNews pnas.org/doi/abs/10.107…
Excited to share our work “Connectional axis of individual functional variability: Patterns, structural correlates, and relevance for development and cognition,” now out at @PNASNews pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn….
1/ Really excited to share our new preprint "Arcuate Fasciculus: Evolutionary Convergence in Marmosets and Humans"! Check it out here: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Really excited to share our new preprint "Geometric influences on the regional organization of the mammalian brain" with @AFornito and a superstar 17-person team! (1/n) biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Do developmental variations in functional connectivity really mean what we think? Byeon, @TingsterX, et al. suggest they may actually reflect shifts in how brain activity spreads. Intriguing implications for measuring and understanding brain development! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Remember back in 2022, when we didn't need to worry about a 2nd Trump Presidency, but were concerned about how many participants it would take to map links between personality & brain activity? (cf work by @smarek0502 & @ndosenbach) We have good news 👇 nature.com/articles/s4200…
The PRIME-DRE Steering Committee has been busy preparing for the next Global Collaboration Workshop. Super excited to see the program coming together! 👏👏 #neuroimaging #multimodal #neuroscience @PRIMatE_RE
✅ We’ve made a checklist that we share through the #NMIND website to help researchers incorporate and report variability analysis in their studies. This simple tool aims to standardize and encourage these practices. nmind.org/variability-ca… 6/8
🚨New paper alert!🚨 Does the sheer number of available analysis workflows (and their potential for conflicting results!!) keep you up at night? Our new 📄🔽 in @NatureComms explores how embracing this variability may actually improve generalizability of results. 1/8 🧵
Ever wondered if the *dynamic* organization of brain networks is conserved across mammals? We too! Our latest work @NatureComm details what we found by comparing fMRI patterns in humans👨macaques 🐒 and mice🐁 nature.com/articles/s4146… Mini 🧵 @IITalk
Hiring!! I am looking for a postdoc who is passionate about brain organization using multimodal neuroimaging data across species. If you’re interested, please reach out for more details! workforcenow.adp.com/mascsr/default…
Can lifespan brain charts from rhesus macaques inform our understanding of neurodevelopment across species? A new preprint by @TingsterX et al. presents detailed MRI-based normative trajectories for brain structure, based on 1,522 scans. Check it out here: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
‼️ Paper alert ‼️ "Deciphering the functional specialization of whole-brain spatiomolecular gradients in the adult brain" now published in PNAS!! How is brain function organized? Regions vs. gradients? Geodesic vs geometric? We add to the debate! pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn… 1/
Excited to announce that our paper has been accepted and published! 🎉 Check it out here: nature.com/articles/s4159… Tutorial: m.bilibili.com/video/BV1bT421… (Keep tuned for the ENG version) #EEG #language #ChineseEEG #OpenDataset
Are you looking for #EEG datasets focused on linguistic processing, especially with raw EEG data and #eye-tracking? Excited to share our recent preprint: A Chinese Linguistic Corpora EEG Dataset for Semantic Alignment and Neural Decoding. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Why do some parts of the cortex expand faster than others in during gestation? We set out to answer this question in our new preprint: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Some details below –
