Honored to present the preliminary results of the mTBI-Predict MRI data today and thrilled to receive the Best Presentation by an Early Career Researcher Award! 🥳Huge thanks to @daviniaferes, Karen, Andy, @martinw3141, Ruwan, Iman, and everyone involved in this incredible…
Terrific catching up with Prof Stephane de Brito, @gao_yidian and the @SCAN_Lab team in Birmingham today !! Thanks for being great hosts - looking forward to coming back next year in summer hopefully :)
Today's ENIGMA Summit compared over 20 brain disorders in tens of thousands of people scanned with MRI, and suggests that: 1. brain disorders that hit very early, before birth (e.g. those due to genomic copy number variants such as genetic deletions) tend to affect cortical…
🥳
Fantastic 2 days meeting @enigmabrains discussing data & developments across multiple working groups focusing on psychiatric & neurodevelopmental disorders in youths. Great talk @TownendSophie on the cross-disorder findings! @MStaginnus @Jul_Dugre @gao_yidian @CAM_Cecil
I would be grateful for the retweets. Open PhD position in my group to look at using cognitive computational Neuro approaches to understand motivation.
Funded PhD (UK students only). Interested in a PhD working in @MSNlab, co-supervised by @froemero1? Topic is flexible around themes of motivation and decision-making, using techniques such as computational modelling, brain imaging, or brain stimulation. tinyurl.com/543ucffd
fMRI network measures are affected by sampling error 🎲, physiological artifacts 💗, arousal 👀, and task state 🎞️. We argue that a major challenge in studies of 🧠network dynamics is distinguishing between these sources of variability. A 🧵 …
