Such a fun symposium! Thank you Andre and @jingnandu.bsky.social for bringing us together for a great #CNS2026! 🧠🍁

Wonderful time at the #CNS2026 Individual-level precision fMRI symposium yesterday with this lovely lineup. See you at the next one!

🚨 New preprint: Objective Quality Assessment for Precision fMRI Precision functional mapping (PFM) enables individual-level brain network studies — but demands more, and better, data. We introduce an objective framework to determine when a dataset truly supports interpretable, replicable PFM.

I am thrilled to share that I’ll be joining the University of Notre Dame (@notredame.bsky.social) as an Assistant Professor of Psychology this July!☘️🧠 Please reach out if you're interested in joining my lab! More details to follow soon.

Could not be more excited about Colton's @coltoncasto.bsky.social work! A deep dive into the linguistic cerebellum, and a discovery of an area remarkably functionally similar to the core left-hemisphere language areas, including in its selectivity for language. Go Colton and team!

** Recruiting a Postdoctoral Researcher! ** We are seeking a postdoc to help examine how brain networks might change within individuals across transitional times, such as adolescence & pregnancy! Please share widely and apply at the link! #NeuroJobs uva.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/UVAJobs/job/...

I am recruiting a Postdoc to join my lab at UMN. If you or someone you know is interested in studying individual differences in brain and cognitive aging, check out the listing and my website in my bio and apply! I appreciate RTs to help get the word out as well :)

Why do brain networks vary? Do these differences shape behavior? If every 🧠 is unique, how can we detect common features of brain organization? @rodbraga.bsky.social and I dig in, in @annualreviews.bsky.social (ahead of print): go.illinois.edu/Gratton2025-... #neuroskyence #psychscisky #MedSky 🧵👇

📣 New preprint from the Braga Lab! 📣 The ventral visual stream for reading converges on the transmodal language network Congrats to Dr. Joe Salvo for this epic set of results Big Q: What brain systems support the translation of writing to concepts and meaning? Thread 🧵 ⬇️

Thrilled to team up with @caterinagratton.bsky.social @ariellekeller.bsky.social and Chuck Lynch for a symposium at CNS 2026! Please consider voting for our session!

My lab at USC is recruiting! 1) research coordinator: perfect for a recent graduate looking for research experience before applying to PhD programs: usccareers.usc.edu REQ20167829 2) PhD students: see FAQs on lab website dornsife.usc.edu/hklab/faq/

⬇️ Check out this great paper by Jingnan Du et al. It shows you can use fMRI task data to estimate networks as reliably as with rest data! A game changer to increase statistical power in regions with low SNR and leverage datasets that may only have task data.

Amazing work led by Jingnan! Pooling in task and rest data can give us a lot of discovery potential like discovering hard to find networks in the thalamus (bulk of my postdoc work with Randy). Task data can be used to define networks and activations from left out runs can be investigated. Cool work!

Our new paper is out now in Neuron! 🎉 With @vaibhavtripathi.bsky.social @maxwellelliott.bsky.social Joanna Ladopoulou, Wendy Sun, Mark Eldaief, and Randy Buckner Paper link: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Excited to share that our work introducing the Reproducible Brain Charts (RBC) data resource is now published in Neuron!! 🎉 📚 Read the paper: authors.elsevier.com/c/1lpaF3BtfH... 🧠 Explore the RBC dataset: reprobrainchart.github.io

The lateral prefrontal cortex 🧠— which we think of as critical for goal driven behavior + is a target for psychiatric treatments— is fundamentally different in individuals relative to the group averages we’ve often studied. 👇see preprint and thread, led by Zach Ladwig #neuroskyence #PsychSciSky

New brain/language study w/ @evfedorenko.bsky.social! We applied task-agnostic individualized functional connectomics (iFC) to the entire history of fMRI scanning in the Fedorenko lab, parcellating nearly 1200 brains into networks based on activity fluctuations alone. doi.org/10.1101/2025... . 🧵

🚨 🧠 We have a new preprint out where we studied which brain networks are engaged during mental imagery and self-generated thought. We used a precision fMRI approach along with multidimensional experience sampling (mDES) to get trialwise self-reports from each participant about what they imagined.

As if there wasn’t enough to worry about… It turns out the Salience (SAL) and Parietal Memory Networks (PMN) are the same thing! 😩😩😩 🧵

Intriguing work led by Jingnan! Task regressed functional connectivity is similar to resting state in defining individualized functional networks!

Within-Individual Precision Mapping of Brain Networks Exclusively Using Task Data https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.02.25.640090v1

New preprint!!! We can reliably detect brain changes in individuals in just a year by collecting several rapid 1-minute T1s at each time point - i.e. "cluster scanning". We discovered large individual differences, even in healthy adults t.co/oxD9EBdbvu

[PREPRINT❗️❗️] Very excited to share our latest work on precision mapping of brain networks exclusively using task data!🧠 With @maxwellelliott.bsky.social Joanna Ladopoulou, Mark Eldaief, and Randy Buckner www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... (1/6)
