Read my latest #research on #InfantAtlases, published with @SpringerNature in @naturemethods! Share ideas on how to use the atlases in comments below.
To kick off the New Year: MRI surface-volume atlases of month-to-month human infant brain development from age 2 weeks to 2 years. @sahar_ahmad4 @pt_yap @UNCRadiology @BRIC_UNC OA paper: nature.com/articles/s4159…
Congrats to this year's Bruker MRI Award Winners, presented at the @ISMRM. 1st place was awarded to Tzu-Hao Harry Chao @UNC for "Mapping Inter-Brain synchronization in Awake, Socially Interacting Mice, SORDINO Sequence for Hyperscanning". 👉goto.bruker.com/440KyKb #BrukerMRIAward
1/ Six years in the making! Our preprint on SORDINO fMRI is out. We're sharing the raw data and sequence to facilitate brain-wide mapping in awake, behaving rodents. If this could be useful to your colleagues and friends, please help spread the word! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
🚀 Meet Anatomy-to-Tract Mapping (ATM): a deep learning framework that infers bundle-specific streamlines directly from anatomical MRI—no diffusion streamline propagation required. 🧠✨ #Neuroimaging #WhiteMatter @UNCRadiology @BRIC_UNC biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
🧠 New paper alert! Our latest work “Functional development of the human cerebellum from birth to age five” is now out in @NatureComms! 🎉 Read the paper: doi.org/10.1038/s41467… @UNCRadiology @BRIC_UNC
Yueh Lee, MD, PhD, named Inaugural Member of National Academy of Inventors Chapter. Lee is part of the first cohort of the UNC at Chapel Hill’s National Academy of Inventors (NAI) chapter, which supports and celebrates the achievements of inventors within the UNC community.
How can we identify and map excitation-inhibition imbalances across brain regions during Alzheimer's disease progression using functional MRI data?@UNC @CommsMedicine "Revealing excitation-inhibition imbalance in Alzheimer’s disease using multiscale neural model inversion of…
The UltimateSynth training framework could allow your algorithm to generalize across all MR contrasts! Worth a 👀 Paper: doi.org/10.1101/2024.1… RadAccess article: bit.ly/RadAccess_E6 👏 @RheaAdams_MRI @MRI_Wally @mri_siyuan @WenjiaoLyu @sahar_ahmad4 @MRI_Dan @pt_yap
Will your algorithm stand up to over 150,000 MRI contrasts? @UNCRadiology @BRIC_UNC
Exciting work led by @RheaAdams_MRI in collaboration with @pt_yap on UltimateSynth, a pan-contrast MRI synthesis framework powered by MR physics that generates realistic MR images across the full contrast spectrum, independent of sequence, scan, vendor, or contrast type.…
