I’ve been keeping this to myself for a bit… but I can finally say it: I won the @britishneuro.bsky.social Postgraduate Award 2025. 🧠🏆

Celebrating brilliance in UK neuroscience! The 2025 BNA Awards highlight the talent and dedication of our members @andrulyte.bsky.social @lng.org.uk and Jaya Sharma. 🏅 Read more: www.bna.org.uk/resource/202...

🚨 New preprint alert! Excited to share findings from the BIL&GIN study 🧠 ↑ Coupling in L anterior insula + R MTG → atypical language lateralisation ↑ Coupling in precentral sulcus → left-lateralised Link: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

I did it - I’m officially Dr. Ieva! 🥹
Yesterday I passed my PhD viva and I’m still in disbelief. Huge thanks to my examiners, supervisor, collaborators, and my incredible fiancé who’s been by my side through it all. This journey was intense, but I’m proud, relieved, and happy!

Come chat with me at my poster today about recent systematic review on language lateralisation and white matter structure in both healthy and clinical populations📖🧠 #BNA2025 @britishneuro.bsky.social

I’m so new to this app, but thought it’s always a great idea to share some great news! I submitted my PhD thesis a week ago. It was one of the best challenges and experiences in my life! 4.5 years of growth, struggles, and somehow I wrote a 300 page (?!!) book! It's crazy. Now to prepare for viva!

New #preprint out🧠 “Distinct patterns of structural connectivity are associated with variations in language lateralisation.” www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
