If you have expertise in MRI/behavioral data collection and are eager to break into the women's brain health/human neuroendocrinology field, this is an outstanding opportunity for you! Plus you get to live in beautiful Santa Barbara ☀️ 🌊 🌴 ⛰️

Excited to share I’ve been awarded a 2-year @bbrfoundation Young Investigator Grant! This will support my work on brain changes linked to perinatal depression, building on my research in human maternal brain. Grateful to be at @bowers-wbhi.bsky.social with Dr. @emilyjacobs.bsky.social !

Absolutely thrilled to share the 🌟 FIRST PAPER 🌟 from ACORN Lab! 🐿️ I’m beyond proud of all-star grad student @heatherarobinson.bsky.social for this review of “exposome” effects on neurodevelopment & cognition! Paper here rdcu.be/ezUqx & thread below 👇 /1 #neuroskyence #PsychSciSky #devsky #cogdev

Excited to share this profile + interview with Dr. Emily Jacobs! Amazing work on human precision brain imaging across hormonal fluctuations, and such an inspiring story! I had such a great time interviewing her!

We’re hiring! Pls share widely: In conjunction w/ the @bowers-wbhi.bsky.social, my team is recruiting a full-time clinical research coordinator to assist with research efforts at UC Santa Barbara. 1-2 yrs experience in MRI data collection preferred. Submit apps to: recruit.ap.ucsb.edu/JPF02974

‼️NEW PREPRINT‼️ What if you could take a normal 3T T1w MRI and make it look like it was acquired from a 7T scanner? That's exactly what we do using AI in our new preprint! Link: arxiv.org/abs/2507.13782 #neuroskyence #neurosky #compneuro #AI #datascience #neurology #mrisky #neuroimaging

How does the human brain coordinate hierarchical cortical development? Our work in Nature Neuroscience identifies a role for thalamocortical structural connectivity in the expression of hierarchical periods of cortical plasticity & environmental receptivity in youth 🧵 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Join us in beautiful Santa Barbara! We're hiring a full-time junior specialist/research technician to play a central role in data collection & analysis of brain imaging studies of pregnancy & menopause. Learn more & apply at: recruit.ap.ucsb.edu/JPF02974 Or help us spread the word 💫

Dreaming of a dataset that tracks mood, sleep & activity to better understand affective instability (AI)…AND paired with advanced MRI? 🤯 Check out our new bioRxiv preprint for a 13–23 y/o community sample (n=10 and growing!) with multi-echo fMRI, EMA & actigraphy: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Amazing opp!! 👇🏼👇🏼

Awesome opportunity to work on women’s brain health with an absolute star — pls repost

We’re hiring a clinical research coordinator to lead a neuroimaging study on brain changes across pregnancy and perinatal depression. wd1.myworkdaysite.com/en-US/recrui... Please RT.

Excited to share that our paper is now in press at the British Journal of Psychiatry! Looking forward to presenting our work this Friday at #SOBP2025 in our symposium: "Does one size fit all? Subgroup Modeling of Brain-Behavior Relationships in Psychiatry" 🧠 #neuroskyence #neuroimaging #psychscisky

THRILLED to see this SI now out addressing the power and potential of focusing our lens on women. H/t to Tali for making space for these ideas to flourish and for a dream team of investigators to contribute!!

Dropping 🔥🔥🔥 knowledge @susanacarmona.bsky.social @magdamartinezga.bsky.social @sheilashanmugan.bsky.social Laura Pritschet Do not miss a slew of top notch papers on the maternal brain in this SI www.nytimes.com/2025/03/05/h...

Cortical maturation unfolds hierarchically, endowing the PFC with extended plasticity. But do timeframes of plasticity vary across PFC layers? With 7T quantitative myelin imaging, EEG, and cognitive data, we uncover heterochronous laminar maturation in the PFC 1/n. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Congratulations to Christian Kohler (@PennPsych) on his recent induction into the @pennmedicine.bsky.social Academy of Master Clinicians! Learn more about Dr. Kohler & his work here➡️ tinyurl.com/42bt2uc9 #PennMedicineAOMC

The early postdoctoral Juan de la Cierva call will be opening soon. If you're interested in studying the human maternal brain, please reach out to us. www.aei.gob.es/convocatoria...

Here's a starter pack of researchers studying the effects of hormones on the brain with #neuroimaging. Thanks to @sheilashanmugan.bsky.social @angielaird.bsky.social @62442katieb.bsky.social and Laura Pritschet for filling it in. If you want to be added, just reply to this post and I'll add you.

Our next speaker is the phenom @sheilashanmugan.bsky.social who pairs advanced imaging + reproductive psychiatry and is conducting what is hands down some of THE coolest work in neuro.

Hello Bluesky Fam! Come join the monthly Ann S. Bowers Women’s Brain Health Initiative Seminar Series for the latest science pairing women’s health + data science. With a global audience of 500 registrants from 35+ countries it’s become an amazing watering hole for the exchange of ideas. 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

We're excited to release new versions of our BIDS-Apps for processing and analyzing #dmri data, QSIPrep and QSIRecon! Our team has been working hard to prepare these pipelines to process infant data and bring them in line with the @nipreps.bsky.social ecosystem. #neuroimaging #nipreps #bids 1/10

Beyond excited about this!!!! Major improvements + development to QSIPrep/QSIRecon make it better than ever. Massive kudos to the whole supergroup at @pennlinc.bsky.social and around the globe, led by dMRI+ neuroinformatics hero @cieslakmatt.bsky.social. Let us know what you think!!

☀️ New preprint! ☀️ Cognitive tests from 23,000+ participants in 4 datasets show cyclical fluctuations across the calendar year, including a small but replicable “summer slide” where youth show worst performance after school vacation. t.ly/OMzgl #PsychSciSky #CogPsyc #CogDev #devpsy #CogSci Thread /1
