Honored to be named the runner-up for the Science & PINS Prize for Neuromodulation, with my essay now published by @science.org science.org/doi/10.1126/... The essay lays out how mapping the brain's functional circuits lets us move neuromodulation from deep toward the brain surface.

Correlating brain maps across datasets is everywhere in neuroimaging. Here we ask: when you contextualize a brain map against genes, metabolism, or connectivity... What can you really conclude? How can we do better? We explore these questions here: tinyurl.com/2dudkevc
Opportunities and pitfalls of data contextualization in neuroimaging - Nature Reviews Neuroscience
Despite rapid exploitation of the opportunities that contextualization of brain maps affords, potential limitations have received little attention. In this Roadmap, Royer et al. provide practical guid...

Delighted to see this incredible work by the superb @joelleba.bsky.social + a stellar team out as a preprint. Joelle provides a compelling set of results showing that canonical white matter tracts that traverse the cortical hierarchy are linked to cognitive diversity. Congrats Joelle!!!
Ever wondered how white matter tracts actually map onto the cortical hierarchy and cognition—beyond the usual “projection vs association” labels? Our new preprint tackles exactly that! 🧠✨ doi.org/10.64898/202... Thread below 🧵
Thanks for the figure @bttyeo.bsky.social 🙂🧠🙏🏽!
In this review, @lucinauddin.bsky.social and Hugh Garavan examine how task and resting-state fMRI can reveal brain-behavior relationships in youth, highlighting current controversies and challenges, outlining solutions, and proposing future directions in developmental neuroscience research.
Just delighted to see this out in the world !! This is the first installment of SYPRES -- our living meta-analysis + open data resource focused on psychedelics. Led by the incomparable @parkersingleton.bsky.social and @bsevchik.bsky.social. Check it out + and give us your feedback!!!
🍄 Our new living systematic review and meta-analysis on psilocybin for depression is out. Here's what we found and the open science infrastructure we built to support it 🧪🧵 www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1...
When I first started working with resting state fMRI as a postdoc, there was a lot of skepticism about what we could learn from it. 20 years later, it's hard to imagine where the field of neuroscience would be without it. Here's a summary 🧠 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Very interesting paper!!! Huge Congrats!!!👏👏
Check out this stellar work from the one-and-only @valeriejsydnor.bsky.social w/ team at @pennlinc.bsky.social + (many!) friends -- providing new evidence that thalamo-cortical connectivity coordinates the hierarchical progression of cortical plasticity in development. Out in @natneuro.nature.com.
Check our latest preprint! www.biorxiv.org/cgi/content/... We present the first population-specific brain charts for China, developed through the Chinese Lifespan Brain Mapping Consortium (Phase I) using high-quality neuroimaging data from 43,037 participants (aged 0-100 years, 384 sites). (1/6)
Happy to share that our article “Human lifespan changes in the brain’s functional connectome” is now published online at Nature Neuroscience @natureneuro.bsky.social ! Many thanks to all collaborators & data contributors, and the editor team & reviewers! www.nature.com/articles/s41...
