Out now in @pnas.org We present a new metabolism-weighted brain connectome that incorporates each region’s energy expenditure into the mapping of brain connectivity. www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

it‘s hot again in Bordeaux 😎 and Wednesday is neuroenergetics day: find Mahnaz‘s oral presentation and Samira‘s poster dates below and drop by for discussions! #ohbm2026 @samomat.bsky.social, @mahnazAshrafi

Join me at #ohbm2026 to discuss about the reliability of multiparametric, quantitative MRI on Wed and Thurs N°2502 :)

Congratulations @samomat.bsky.social & @vavatin.bsky.social! 🥳

If you are setting up the meso-veins protocol for the first time at your 7T (doi.org/10.1126/scia...), you should watch this video where I am providing the most up to date pointers. As well as the tips on quality controlling your images: youtu.be/57URvSjUYRY

🧠 Resting-state fMRI is often treated as the gold standard for studying the brain’s intrinsic organization. But is it actually the best way to estimate functional architecture? We tested this directly. 🧵1/8

Prof. Dr. Valentin Riedl untersucht, wie viel Energie das menschliche Gehirn braucht und wofür es diese einsetzt. 🧠 FAU-Präsident @hornegger.bsky.social hat den Professor für Neurobildgebung Immunologischer und Metabolischer Prozesse besucht: www.fau.de/2026/03/news...

Needed it for more reliable fMRI 👏🏽

Samira Epp and Valentin Riedl show that #fMRI blood-flow signals are not a reliable indicator of #BrainEnergy use. Around 40% can oppose neuronal activity, challenging standard interpretations: go.tum.de/211216 #Neuroscience @fau.de 📷G.Castrillon

Seit fast dreißig Jahren ist die funktionelle Magnetresonanztomographie (fMRT) eines der Hauptinstrumente der Hirnforschung. Doch eine neue Studie mit FAU-Beteiligung stellt die bisherige Interpretation der gewonnenen Daten bezüglich der neuronalen Aktivität grundsätzlich in Frage. go.fau.de/1dgci

fMRI signals “up,” but neural metabolism might be going “down.” In our @natneuro.nature.com paper, we demonstrate that about 40% of voxels with robust BOLD responses exhibit opposite oxygen metabolism, revealing two distinct hemodynamic modes. rdcu.be/eUPO8 funds @erc.europa.eu #neuroskyence 🧵:

Do you ever wish you could just use python to pull together the files and code for running FSL's randomise? Me too! I made this: github.com/jmumford/ran... It will even replace the numbers in the file outputs with contrast names of your choosing (and replace corrp with 1minusp).

Following the news that eLife will not receive an Impact Factor in 2025, we’ve shared an update on how our model is doing since we were first placed “on hold” by Web of Science, and what we’re up to now. Find out more. https://buff.ly/3ATRAFT

Hey Bluesky people! I want to invite you to attend the MRI Together workshop, a free virtual global event dedicated to fostering open, reproducible, and inclusive MR research generously supported by ESMRMB. This event will be held across multiple time zones between 3-6 December 2023.

If you are interested in neural manifolds, dimensionality, brain states, and/or top-down modulation you are gonna like this one! 🧠🙈💫🧪 "Neural manifolds in V1 change with top-down signals from V4 targeting the foveal region" doi.org/10.1016/j.ce... Also enjoy this animation :) #SciArt #neuroskyence

Hope I'm the first to post this all time classic on this platform

BLUESKY! Twitter is awful and so is social media - what can everyone do instead? www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
