First tweet on an exciting new manuscript online Nature Neuroscience - in collab with Lucina Uddin and Catie Chang. We take a fresh look at the physiological dynamics associated with the global signal 🧠... #neuroscience #neuroimaging #fMRI Read here: rdcu.be/ek01F

Where does Alzheimer’s begin in the brain? Our new study in Neuron reveals that earliest changes start deep in cortical layers 5/6, selectively affecting parvalbumin interneurons via reduced NPTX2 & GluA4. Restoring NPTX2 reversed deficits. cell.com/neuron/fulltex…

I recently had the great pleasure of interviewing Michael Bruchas about an absolutely banger recent paper from his group that tracked down cells in the brainstem that subtlety and precisely control the output of the locus coeruleus. Check out my interview here!

Applications for this (well-paid) postdoctoral position in our group in Sydney, Australia close in a few days. Anyone interested in complex systems and/or neural dynamics 👀👇

🎉 FINALLY PUBLISHED! 🎉 We outline how to capture the #emergent dynamical structure in #biophysical neural models. coauthored with a team dear to my heart; Thomas Andrillon, Anil Seth, Lionel Barnett, Olivia Carter PLOS Comp Biol journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol/a…

🧠 How to measure #FunctionalConnectivity using #fMRI? And what is the ground truth? 🎯 We aimed to target both questions in our recent work published in #NeuroImage using data from HCP News and OpenNeuro.org 🤓 To read: doi.org/10.1016/j.neur… #Neuroimaging #BrainMapping

How does the brain reorganize in the context of age and AD? Are functional changes in age and AD similar? Are these changes dynamic across the age/AD spectrum? We unpack these questions in a sample of N=973 with AD biomarkers Preprint: tinyurl.com/ymv8s7h8 1/ ⬇️🧵
