From late June into July, we had a fantastic time at the #IMPRS CoNI Summer School! 🌟Our team members Dana Gawlitzek, @tobiashopf.bsky.social and Lea Haerms presented their work during the poster sessions 🥳🎉

Our new study, led by the amazing @alex john asks how thalamic nuclei mature differently across childhood and adolescence, and how structural and functional development are linked. doi.org/10.64898/202...

Nucleus-level thalamic organization anchors multimodal signatures of thalamocortical maturation

The human thalamus is composed of multiple nuclei that differ in structure and function. From early development onwards, these nuclei form reciprocal, nucleus-specific connections with the cerebral co...

#OHBM2026 recap! Congratulations to our postdoc Cheslie @cheslieklein.bsky.social presenting her work on arcuate fasciculus maturation and language development in 1-year-olds during both her oral and poster sessions! 🧠✨

Thanks for this amazing symposium on precision imaging in infants and for all the energy you put into it (despite being the last day) @reznikdaniel.bsky.social, @drjuliamoser.bsky.social, @camerontellis.bsky.social and Jucha Willers Moore! Really exciting directions and discussions! #OHBM2026

Julia Moser@drjuliamoser.bsky.social · 2mo ago

Working on your schedule for #OHBM2026? Save some energy for the last day to discuss the latest in precision imaging of the infant brain with @reznikdaniel.bsky.social, Jucha Willers Moore from @kingspfig.bsky.social and @camerontellis.bsky.social!

Amazing memories from #PuG2026! 🧠 Wonderful seeing the team: Charlotte Grosse Wiesmann (3rd from left), @heidrunschultz.bsky.social @tobiashopf.bsky.social & Anna-Lena Tebbe. Great conference featuring Charlotte & Heidrun's symposium and posters by Tobias Hopf & Lea Haerms. Thanks for stopping by! 🙌

Excited for #OHBM2026 in Bordeaux! I'm presenting at an oral session on arcuate fascicle maturation in 1-year-olds (Monday, June 15 at 4:45 pm) and a poster (Monday, June 15 at 12:30 & Tuesday, June 16 at 12:30). Come say hi, happy to chat about infant brain development! #OHBM #HumanBrainMapping
