Check out our new work on the relationship between glioma and system-level functional networks! We identify that nearly all gliomas localize within a common brain functional network, Action-Mode Network (AMN) . biorxiv.org/content/10.64898/2026.01.05.697608v1

This is your brain on Ritalin. Got your attention? Stimulant medications like Ritalin (methylphenidate) do, but not in the way you might think. They don't act directly on the brain’s attention systems! Find out what's really happening in @cellpress.bsky.social. doi.org/10.1016/j.ce...

Our paper on the ☀️ "summer slide" 🛝 is out now @pnas.org! www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/... Summer slide is a replicable phenomenon across diverse datasets that's more than "forgetting" school material in vacation months, but effects of socioeconomic inequality are ➡️ 7x bigger! ⬅️ #PsychSciSky #DevPsy 🧵👇

Launched in 2023, Imaging Neuroscience is now firmly established, with full indexing (PubMed, etc.) and 700 papers to date. We're very happy to announce that we are able to reduce the APC to $1400. Huge thanks to all authors, reviewers, editorial team+board, and MIT Press.

This looks pretty cool: ultrasound can now see through the skull! 🧠🔊 The skull has long been a barrier to ultrasound. This reprint shows how to make it quickly transparent → enabling full-depth, high-res fUSI in mice (& humans! 🤯🤯) Huge congrats to the authors!!! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

What started as a journal club on layer decoding turned into a project thanks to @karolisdegutis.bsky.social. Our preprint challenges a widespread assumption in the field: MVPA is not immune to vascular confounds in laminar GE-BOLD decoding, as shown using a mechanistic laminar response model.

Longitudinal neuroimaging of participants with planned arm amputations shows that the cortical body map remains stable after amputation. The findings, published in Nature Neuroscience, challenge long-standing theories of brain remapping after limb loss. go.nature.com/4oLSyYO 🧪 #Neuroscience

I’m elated to share our latest publication - out now in @natmentalhealth.nature.com! www.nature.com/articles/s44... - tour de force by @leahbanellis.bsky.social @brainandstomach.bsky.social and the rest of the VMP team!

For me, this work is a classic @ohbmofficial.bsky.social story: In 2023 I wasn't working with @bttyeo.bsky.social but I overheard him at his poster pointing to some accuracy curves saying "I don't why they have this particular shape". That kicked off the collab that led to these results.

🚨Thrilled to share our latest work just published in @nature.com where we looked into the optimal fMRI scan time for brain-wide association studies (BWAS) 🧠⏱️! Full thread below👇:

Super thankful to @bttyeo.bsky.social @csabaorban.bsky.social and @shaoshiz.bsky.social for pouring in all the effort to make this work possible!

Thanks to everyone's feedback, we have updated our calculator to optimize sample size N & scan time T for fMRI studies: leonoqr.github.io/ORSP_Calcula... The first new feature is that users can explore how different N & T leads to different accuracy, e.g., N=1000 & T=30min => 81% max accuracy. 🧵
