🧬🧠 Our latest study shows that individual brain dynamics are partly written in our genes. We found that heritable neurophysiological traits align with adult cortical gene expression and psychological function. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/... @theneuro.bsky.social @mcgill.ca

Have you been using ABCD data? Are you measuring psychopathology with the CBCL? You will want to check out our latest preprint, led by @kanepav.bsky.social, which shows that the constructs measured by the tool fail to meet many basic validity tests. Peep the thread!

V useful paper by @bttyeo.bsky.social @leonooi.bsky.social @csabaorban.bsky.social @shaoshiz.bsky.social in @nature.com. Scan longer if you want to predict behav using fMRI and save $. Great use of the TCP data: (pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC...).

1/11 Excited to share our @Naturestudy led by @leonooi.bsky.social @csabaorban.bsky.social @shaoshiz.bsky.social AI performance is known to scale with logarithm of sample size (Kaplan 2020), but in many domains, sample size can be # participants or # measurements... doi.org/10.1038/s415...

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...

New preprint! Why are long-range connectomic interactions in the cortex dominant in shaping dynamics in some experiments but apparently negligible in others? We (w/ R Maran, @elimuller.bsky.social) address this question by studying a new hybrid model of cortical dynamics. arxiv.org/abs/2506.19800
