✨ New preprint ✨ Introducing cuBNM, a toolbox we developed to run brain simulations *much* more efficiently on GPUs 🎉🚀 Preprint: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Documentation: cubnm.readthedocs.io/en/stable/ GitHub: github.com/amnsbr/cubnm 1/n 🧵

It's a wrap! BIG thanks to all speakers, chairs, attendees, and our organizing committee - particularly our superstar local organizers Johan and Saurabh - for making our gradient dreams come true for the sixth year in a row ⭐ 🌈 🧠 🚀

🎉🎉#OHBM2025 is just around the corner! Remember to visit the SP-SIG stall next to the registration desk and add stickers to your badge describing your research interests!

I finally defended my thesis! Thanks all! I started my PhD during covid! I am really grateful that my supervisor @sofievalk.bsky.social picked me to be her first PhD student when I was naive to neuroimage. I have been so lucky to stay in this happy and respectful academic environment so far!

🧠⚖️📉 How does the cortical excitation-inhibition ratio mature during adolescence? We asked this in our new paper just out in #ScienceAdvances ✨ “Adolescent maturation of cortical excitation-inhibition ratio based on individualized biophysical network modeling” 📄 www.science.org/doi/full/10.... 🧵⤵️

🚨🚨🚨PREPRINT ALERT🚨🚨🚨 Neural dynamics across cortical layers are key to brain computations - but non-invasively, we’ve been limited to rough "deep vs. superficial" distinctions. What if we told you that it is possible to achieve full (TRUE!) laminar (I, II, III, IV, V, VI) precision with MEG!

🎨🧑‍🎨 Looking for a tool to visualize subcortical/thalamic data in 2D? Check out this python-based package I put together (subcortex-visualization on PyPI), plus a guide for creating your own custom atlas meshes and vector graphics! All feedback/tips welcome 😊 anniegbryant.github.io/subcortex_vi...

As always, it was great fun to connect with our ENIGMA Consortium community last night at #SOBP2025 in Toronto - thanks to all who joined us! Cheers to science and the next SOBP conference🍻🧠

Happy to share my last PhD work "Genetic, transcriptomic, metabolic, and neuropsychiatric underpinnings of cortical functional gradients". We used UKB, HCP, and QTAB to analyze the genetics of functional gradients. The results are so good, consistent, and inspiring! (1/3)

🚨 14 DAY REMINDER! 🚨 Only 14 days left to submit your content for #OHBM2025 in Brisbane, Australia! 🗒️ The deadline is December 17, 2024, at 11:59 PM EST. Don’t miss this chance to share your research—follow the link in comments to submit! #Neuroscience #CallforContent

The human 🧠 has two halves that make our behaviors and thoughts more efficient. How the asymmetry of the brain halves contributes to human cognition, examined @wanb.bsky.social & @sofievalk.bsky.social in their study in Nature Communications: www.cbs.mpg.de/2316389/2024...

Thrilled to share my latest work "Microstructural asymmetry in the human cortex" now out in NatComms. www.nature.com/articles/s41... This work used cytoarchitecture (BigBrain), T1w/T2w, qT1, and MT measures to bring the cortical asymmetry from macrostructure to microstructure.
