When we acquire multimodal MRI data, they give us complementary views on the same tissue. How can we combine this rich information to improve the specificity of tissue modelling in MRI?

Thread of French and Dutch research institutes slowly unsubscribing from web of science (and thence impact factors).

Very excited about this! I was waiting until we finished the online practicals and road-tested them at a workshop before posting here. If you're not sure what to read over xmas... :)

What an absolutely extraordinary milestone. Congrats @fmrib-steve.bsky.social @fmrib-karla.bsky.social and everyone else involved. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Biggest human imaging study scans 100,000th UK volunteer

UK Biobank scientists say the human body can be studied in greater detail than ever thanks to people like Steve.

Shouldn't that be NaN? @wimbledonltc.bsky.social

Woof!

Congratulations to Steve Smith @fmrib-steve.bsky.social for winning the OHBM 2025 Glass Brain Award! This lifetime achievement award recognises extraordinary contributions that drive the field forward - and we can't think of anyone more deserving. 👏👏👏

The OxCIN Global Scholars programme offers a year of remote MRI training and collaboration for early-career researchers from the Global South. Apply by June 30th to join the 2025/26 cohort. Please repost! www.oxcin.ox.ac.uk/about/traini...

*** Come join us !! We are recruiting !! *** How does the brain generate beliefs that go beyond direct experience? How do these mechanisms go awry in psychosis? The Barron lab tinyurl.com/bdf4drjf @MRCBNDU @NDCNOxford are recruiting a new postdoc tinyurl.com/ut4vbwt4 to work in mouse models

Registration Open! FSL Course 2025 will be held fully online, 15th – 26th September. Details & registration info here: open.win.ox.ac.uk/pages/fslcou... The course covers lectures & hands-on practicals on structural, functional, diffusion and resting state brain image analysis.

Incredibly flexible simulator brought to you by the talented @michielcottaar.bsky.social. Can feed arbitrary sequences (e.g. with pulseq) and model lots of microstructure features (diffusion, permeability, susceptibility, MT). Allows multimodal simulations. Fully documented and open. :)

For all women in science Eleanor Maguire should be an inspiration. Unlike Rosalind Franklin, her contribution was fully appreciated during her lifetime. So it is fitting that in 2008 she was awarded the Rosalind Franklin medal by the Royal Society. #neuroscience #psychology

Great to see this in @elife.bsky.social and very nice piece by Anas. I hope he is right about the brighter future.

eLife@elife.bsky.social · 2y ago

Anas is a PhD student in Morocco, home to the world’s oldest university, Al-Qarawiyyin. This rich academic history can count for little against the obstacles faced by researchers in the global south. The future, however, looks brighter than the past. https://buff.ly/3Vv7lKB

🚨 Come work with us, we’re hiring! 🚨 See below our 2 postdoc positions at @institutpasteur.bsky.social in Paris. Funded by our ERC Synergy grant, this is a collaboration with the labs of Víctor Borrell in Spain ( @borrell-lab.bsky.social), Laurent Nguyen in Belgium and Kristian Franze in Germany 🧵⬇️

🧠 Come work with us! In addition to our postdoc position on modelling, our lab at @institutpasteur.bsky.social we also seek a postdoc to help us create the most complete open atlas of brain folding development! This is part of our ERC Synergy project Unfold (unfold-lab.github.io). Join us! (1/10)

Early days, but it looks like our authors don't think we need an impact factor either! Submissions are strong in numbers and high quality since the Clarivate/WoS announcement. We should not let a multibillion dollar company dictate how science is evaluated!

eLife@elife.bsky.social · 2y ago

Following the news that eLife will not receive an Impact Factor in 2025, we’ve shared an update on how our model is doing since we were first placed “on hold” by Web of Science, and what we’re up to now. Find out more. https://buff.ly/3ATRAFT

We are new here - let us know what you would like to see from Oxford Neuroscience on Bluesky. @zoltan-molnar.bsky.social @oxexppsy.bsky.social
