Thrilled our ADHD network mapping work is now out in Annals of the Child Neurology Society, and honored to be featured on the cover! 🔗 Full article: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.... @childneurosoc.bsky.social @bostonchildrens.bsky.social @simonwarfield.bsky.social @braincircuits.bsky.social

🗣️Non-federal funding alert!!! Aligning Research to Impact Autism (ARIA) has a new RFA to join their IMPACT Network, a clinical-translational research effort to accelerate care for people across the spectrum by enabling rapid therapeutic development. Up to $15 million over 5 years. bit.ly/3YRYMv3

Aligning Research to Impact Autism (ARIA) aims to speed up the route from basic research to treatments for profound autism. Scientific director Matthew State shared more about the initiative’s goals and upcoming RFAs in a Q&A with @lauschenk.bsky.social. www.thetransmitter.org/spectrum/exp...

We are looking to hire a Senior Data Manager for a new initiative focused on neurodevelopmental conditions for which @bostonchildrens.bsky.social will serve as the admin hub. Please feel free to share! jobs.bostonchildrens.org/job/21859461...

Amazing work by Julian Kutsche and the many other collaborators. @drdrxanderli.bsky.social @andreashorn.org @harvardmed.bsky.social

Reduced function or injury to the frontal pole may increase creativity by disengaging the self-monitoring & cognitive control actions of the frontal pole to allow novelty seeking & creativity to be unleashed. @braincircuits.bsky.social @foxmdphd.bsky.social @julianneumann.bsky.social

How can a brain disease increase creativity? We derive a brain circuit from creative tasks demonstrating they share reduced activity in the right frontal pole. Then we show that brain lesions & neurodegeneration that increase creativity are connected to this location jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

🗣️ Language is widely distributed throughout the brain 🧠 In a recent correspondence in @natrevneurosci.bsky.social, we suggest that there is no 'language network' in the brain. What appears as such is an inevitable illusion created in part by the methods we use. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Excellent resource!!!

I would have titled this: “Shining a light on the black hole: Look you can see activations in orbitofrontal cortex now!”

Completely agree.

This is wild! What a cool idea and set of approaches. #neuroimaging #neuroskyence

I think there is a way to do exploratory research very rigorously. Just use full transparency. Publish the entire github history for the analysis chain, nits, zits, and all. And of course, focus more on the strength of evidence than posthoc narrative building.

The work incorporating optimisation to guide experiment design/analysis is also a way to do rigorous exploratory research. E.g., www.cell.com/trends/cogni... www.nature.com/articles/s41... www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

Students don't need a perfect teacher. Students need a happy teacher, who's gonna make them excited to come to school and grow a love for learning.

Great book!

Recruiting diverse talent is insufficient; we need retention. And we can do better. Here’s hoping this highly practical paper is helping guide change in academia. newsnetwork.mayoclinic.org/discussion/a...

@nilearn.bsky.social + JupyterLab + [insert cluster/cloud of your choice] is my happy place…

The strain on scientific publishing: we set out to characterise the remarkable growth of the scientific literature in the last few years, in spite of declining growth in total scientists. What is going on? direct.mit.edu/qss/article/... A 🧵 1/n #AcademicSky #PhDchat #ScientificPublishing #SciPub

Great thread and article —>

If you need to share Jupyter notebooks with others, you should definitely check out notebooksharing.space - in particular, it has a nifty command line uploader (as easy as "pip install nbss-upload") that makes it super easy to share a notebook.

I wish there was an easier way to communicate to early career people what being at the next stage is actually like. You can describe it, but it’s like an embodied experience that’s very hard to help people really understand. There’s no analog.

Does this mean I should be writing my grants in the spring and submitting them in October?

Pretty cool resource for figures!

Thanks to @MayoClinic for helping gather so many fine current and former @mayoneurores @ChildNeuroSoc #CNSAM; my wife also trained @MayoClinicSOM and despite 20 years passing (and going into psychiatry) she still has fond memories of Dr. Mack so it was nice to tell him so!

Come join the @ChildNeuroSoc #CNSAM Junior Member / Early Career Forum, with @DrDrXanderLi, @pbkang7, @drdrariel, and Dr. Paul Youssef as they engage in a dialogue on the needs of those more early on in their child neurology journey.
