Les espèces classiques de la SVT : se reproduisent 🥱 Les reines des fourmis M. ibericus : clonent des mâles d'une autre espèce 🤯 pour se reproduire avec et créer des ouvrières hybrides 😤 tout en faisant des mâles de leur espèce pour faire des nouvelles reines 💃💃 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

New paper in Imaging Neuroscience by Elise Roger, Gaelle E. Doucet, et al: When age tips the balance: A dual mechanism affecting hemispheric specialization for language doi.org/10.1162/IMAG...

Excited to share that our work is now published in Imaging Neuroscience! 🧠🥳 We show how aging reshapes the brain’s language and memory networks, revealing striking shifts in hemispheric specialization across the lifespan. Check it out @imagingneurosci.bsky.social

Holmes Lab is representing at #OHBM2025! 🧵 Loic @loiclabache.bsky.social presented in the Language: Anatomy, Networks and Pathology section with his paper on "The molecular and cellular underpinnings of human brain lateralization" 🧠

🚨Preprint!🚨 So excited to share my 1st major study as a postdoc at @holmeslab-bhi.bsky.social!🤘 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Using a transdiagnostic framework, we found that brain network dynamics were able to discriminate individualized psychiatric symptom profiles with high accuracy 🧵1/9👇

🎨🧑‍🎨 Looking for a tool to visualize subcortical/thalamic data in 2D? Check out this python-based package I put together (subcortex-visualization on PyPI), plus a guide for creating your own custom atlas meshes and vector graphics! All feedback/tips welcome 😊 anniegbryant.github.io/subcortex_vi...

Check our latest work ‘Linking Subjective Experience of Anxiety to Brain Function using Natural Language Processing’. Our analyses link movie-evoked brain activity and subsequent interview recordings in a pediatric sample with and without anxiety disorders (doi.org/10.31234/osf...).

Excited to share the first major piece of work and preprint from my lab! Led by Jason Kim! 🥳🎉🤘 www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Newest #preprint from Holmes lab postdoc @loiclabache.bsky.social 🔥

The molecular and cellular basis of human brain lateralization. Latest paper from @holmeslab-bhi.bsky.social led by @loiclabache.bsky.social. @rutgersbhi.bsky.social, @cahbir.bsky.social

🚨 New #preprint: The molecular and cellular underpinnings of human brain lateralization 🔗 doi.org/10.1101/2025... 🧠 We identify an acetylcholine-norepinephrine axis underlying functional lateralization, along with mitochondrial and cellular correlates. 🧵1/9👇 #neuroskyence

Until recently, in-vivo brain imaging has largely been absent from… integrative efforts, limiting the opportunities to contribute our discoveries, theories or vision toward a comprehensive view of brain function, writes @avramholmes.bsky.social. #neuroskyence www.thetransmitter.org/future-of-fm...

🧩New study: "Network Constraints on 𝘪𝘯 𝘷𝘪𝘷𝘰 Synaptic Alterations in Schizophrenia" medrxiv.org/content/10.1... We map a prominent brain-wide pattern of synaptic defects in people with Schizophrenia using PET, then model the molecular, cellular & connectomic features shaping this pattern 🧵1/3👇

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! Unfortunately, we cannot sponsor visas for this position. Please rt and reach out if you're interested👀

📢 Excited and honored to have our latest work on the molecular and cellular underpinnings of human brain lateralization accepted for an oral and poster presentation at #OHBM2025! 🎉 Catch it at poster #1792 and in the Language: Anatomy, Networks, and Pathology oral session. 🔜 Preprint coming soon! 🧠

New paper‼️ Interested in the protective impacts of parenthood on brain dynamics? 👨‍👩‍👦‍👦🧠 Read Edwina Orchard & @sidchop.bsky.social's new paper, out now in PNAS @pnas.org ! With collaborators L. Ooi, P. Chen, L. An @bttyeo.bsky.social, and more! 🔗https://tinyurl.com/parentalbrain

Interested in #MRI and #psychiatry? Our lab is hiring a research assistant (@holmeslab-bhi.bsky.social)! Please RT and share. @geneticssociety.bsky.social @ohbmofficial.bsky.social @sfnjournals.bsky.social @pgcgenetics.bsky.social @hitop-system.bsky.social @blackinneuro.bsky.social

I'm thrilled to share that my graduate school project was just published in Nature Mental Health! We found that resting-state functional network predictors are more similar within vs between categories of internalizing and externalizing behavior in children (ABCD), adolescents (HBN) and adults (HCP)

Great work by @halleeshearer.bsky.social in her first first-author paper. With 🎀 shiny app 🎀 to explore how FC reliability fares ACROSS DIFFERENT movies versus rest, region-by-region. Thanks @sneuroble.bsky.social @tingsterx.bsky.social @ninetlab.bsky.social for 👍 collab. doi.org/10.1162/imag...

End-of-year hot take 🤯: 'Avoid the use of covariates' 👀 Better approach: Define your research question, examine your data, define what's possible, and carefully consider your covariates. Iterate. ‼️ Blanket rules are meaningless‼️

Love this "Where is Waldo" end-of-the-year science special edition from @imagingneurosci.bsky.social! 🧠🎉 Curious about Waldo? Find out more here: doi.org/10.1162/imag... #neuroscience

2024 was the first full calendar year for Imaging Neuroscience @mitpress - 350 papers published. We're proud of how the brain imaging community enthusiastically embraced open access non-profit publishing. Our aim is to be *your* journal. Full size PDF: drive.google.com/file/d/1M170...

📣 First three years of my PhD have culminated in this work now published at PLoS Computational Biology! 🥳 We take a deep dive into all the many ways we can slice n dice fMRI dynamics to quantify biologically relevant properties 🧠🧮 doi.org/10.1371/jour...

Our study of genes, brains and #DYSLEXIA in over 30,000 adults from @ukbiobank.bsky.social is now published: www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... Brain regions especially involved in motor, language and vision functions are associated with genetic disposition to dyslexia. Thread below ⬇️ 1/8

OHBM has confirmed that Dec 17 is a hard deadline for abstracts.

Excited to share my work revealing that functional organization of human cortex is reflected in the spatial variability of different cell types! nature.com/articles/s41... PDF rdcu.be/d0ZAc

We now publish rich fMRI data in Scientific Data where participants viewed magic trick videos. Curiosity, memory, and reward manipulation are available: www.nature.com/articles/s41... This is a result of incredible effort by Stef Meliss (first author). Congrats!!
