I'm thrilled to share the latest #CASILab paper, out now in @imagingneurosci.bsky.social! We show that cross-modal neuroplasticity is dependent on auditory experience in children who wear hearing aids, and that neuroplasticity is related to verbal outcomes. Check it out! doi.org/10.1162/IMAG...

✨PROUD PI POST✨ At our annual IHN Summer Symposium Friday, #CASILab grad student Mike Shen gave a great flash talk, and then my team got 1ST and 3RD PLACE for best poster presentations! Congrats to my RAs 🥇Grace Salloum and 🥉Jack Carroll! I am so proud of the hard work you all put in this summer!

Mike did an incredible job in his first science talk! Can't wait for this data to be published so we can all chat about it. :)

Really excited to share the latest #CASILab publication that is my grad student Mike's first, first-authored publication! 🥳 We show how hearing loss relates to alterations in auditory entrainment, and how these changes are impacted by hearing aid use. Check it out! tinyurl.com/ymjbpnye

My most favorite week of the year! 🎉

Super proud to say the #CASILab got to ring the bell 🔔 yesterday to celebrate the end of data collection for one of our studies! Our team recruited almost 140 participants from 20 different states and completed over 800 hours of testing, including #MEG, #MRI, neuropsych, and audiology exams. Whew! 🎉

The CASI Lab is representing at #CNS2025! I am so proud that my graduate students will be presenting some of our work looking at age-related changes in the neural dynamics serving cognitive and language development. Please stop by and say hello!

Well, hello! Let me introduce the Institute for Human Neuroscience (IHN) at Boys Town National Research Hospital in Omaha, Nebraska. We are excited to share about all the exciting things we have going on! Check out our website www.instituteforhumanneuroscience.org #neuroscience #IHN #neuroimaging

Augusto's poster (B28) is titled "Developmental Alterations in the Load-Dependent Oscillatory Dynamics of Verbal Working Memory Processing in Youth." Learn more about the #CASIlab, the director @heinrichs-graham.bsky.social, check out the IHN website www.instituteforhumanneuroscience.org/casi-lab

Tomorrow morning during #CNS2025 Session B, #postdoctoralfellow in the #BrAIClab, Dr. Attakias Mertens and #gradstudent in the #CASIlab, Augusto Diedrich will present their posters. @cogneuronews.bsky.social @heinrichs-graham.bsky.social #neuroscience #neuroimaging #IHN #IHNconferences

Science is under threat in the US. @elife.bsky.social have commissioned a series of articles discussing the implications and what we can do. The first three articles are now live. More to follow: elifesciences.org/articles/106... elifesciences.org/articles/106... elifesciences.org/articles/106...

The NIH by charts: It will not be easy to replace funding frozen and terminated by the agency. It is by far the global leader in biomedical funding, and, as many have told me: an absolute gold standard in how to review and fund research. Our full analysis here: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

The first, first-authored paper from one of my grad students (Go Goose!) and the newest CASI Lab pub is out now! We found distinct age-related changes in WM-related oscillatory dynamics that meditated improvements in both verbal and nonverbal ability. Check it out! pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40051330/

Welcome to the Bluesky account for Stand Up for Science 2025! Keep an eye on this space for updates, event information, and ways to get involved. We can't wait to see everyone #standupforscience2025 on March 7th, both in DC and locations nationwide! #scienceforall #sciencenotsilence

NIH indirects case update: Hearing ongoing now, and I'll try to live tweet some notable exchanges. Prior to more detailed arguments, Judge Kelley starts off with a few point questions to both sides: (I'm paraphrasing here)

Check it out! The Cognitive and Sensory Imaging Laboratory (CASI Lab) had a great year. I'm so proud of my Dream Team for all their hard work in data collection, analysis, and dissemination. I can't wait to see what 2025 holds!
