Successful Day 2 at #BrainHackToronto2026 🧠 Shireen Parimoo led a "whirlwind" and comprehensive tutorial on machine learning. I loved the live demos she provided at the end with random forest regression in R. Check out her work on this tutorial here: lnkd.in/eUfWrubb @sickkidsto.bsky.social

Day 1 of #BrainHackToronto2026 👩‍💻 Today's speakers touched on: 📈 predictive models, 🧲 7T MRI scanners, 🎯 validity & reliability in our research methods, 🧬 biologically-inspired computational frameworks, and 🔬precision neuroradiology @sickkidsto.bsky.social @ontariobrain.bsky.social

Is it time to put rest to rest? A great article by @esfinn.bsky.social , which cleverly lays out some unfound assumptions in the field of and an integrated way forward: pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC... It should be required reading for anyone using #resting-state or task-based #fMRI!

This is genuinely one of the best explanations I've ever read about permutation testing! 🦙 www.jwilber.me/permutationt... Thank you ‪@jwilber.bsky.social‬ for breaking this down so clearly

My first #SOBP was awesome! There were so many great sessions where I learned about the neurobiological underpinnings of #depression and new treatments the field is adopting. Thanks to all who came by my poster #SOBP2025

Voted! #ElectionsCanada

Excited to kick off SOBP Brainhack Toronto! #SOBPBrainhack @erinwdickie.bsky.social @dnkennedy.bsky.social @juchiyu.bsky.social @stefsimpson.bsky.social @loliver4.bsky.social

Excited to check out this talk tomorrow morning at 11:30 AM (EST) with @loliver4.bsky.social and Salim Mansour 🧠 We will learn about applying transcranial magnetic stimulation #TMS to treat #schizophrenia

SEEKING POSTDOCS AND STUDENTS for computational/experimental collaboration on neuroscience of human rhythm perception! Thread!

Thrilled to share our latest work on the importance of considering social identities in brain imaging research, now out in @natureneuro.bsky.social. rdcu.be/d4XWM

Thanks to everyone's feedback, we have updated our calculator to optimize sample size N & scan time T for fMRI studies: leonoqr.github.io/ORSP_Calcula... The first new feature is that users can explore how different N & T leads to different accuracy, e.g., N=1000 & T=30min => 81% max accuracy. 🧵

Excited to check out this new piece: "Studying memory narratives with natural language processing" by Dr. Can Fenerci and colleagues in TiCS! www.cell.com/trends/cogni...

Studying memory narratives with natural language processing

Cognitive neuroscience research has begun to use natural language processing (NLP) to examine memory narratives with the hopes of gaining a nuanced understanding of the mechanisms underlying differenc...

Do standard group-level analyses generalize to individual participants? Mattoni et al. (2024) makes a convincing case that they often do not, and we need to do a better at considering #individualdifferences in the context of cognitive #neuroscience www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Thrilled to see our study -- @diamondn.bsky.social @brianlevine.bsky.social and many others -- published in @naturehumbehav.bsky.social We find that sleep enhances memory for the order of events from an art tour, but not the details of the events; and this advantage persisted for over a year! 😴

Dr. Aristotle Voineskos kicked off the Campbell Family Mental Health Speaker Series with a visionary talk about how we can implement our scientific discoveries @camhnews.bsky.social 1⃣ key take away is that we need a system that isn't afraid to adapt and refine itself when the data is clear 📈

Last week I attended a great talk by Adriana DiMartino (from @childmindinstitute.bsky.social) who mentioned her open science initiative on the Autism Brian Imaging Data Exchange 🧠 One key take away is that using tools such as functional MRI can help build a bridge between biology and behaviour!

I attended a great talk today by Drs. Kiss and Clark, in which they emphasized why studying #biomarkers matters, especially in the context of #depression Biomarker research provides 1) insights into underlying mechanisms, 2) better outcome prediction, and 3) more personalized treatments

New study showing that a novel form of neuromodulatory therapy, magnetic seizure therapy, is just as effective at reducing depression vs. standard electroconvulsive therapy in 73 patients. These effects even endured 2 to 6 months later! Heroic effort by Deng and colleagues 👏 shorturl.at/XW4sb
