We have a new lab preprint (led by Derek Smith, Diana C Perez Alexis Porter, Ally Dworetsky) psyarxiv.com/9e28n/ on the importance of individualized fMRI approaches in cognitive control, esp to address specificity/multi-functionality of regions Let us know what you think


Excited to announce that a new lab paper led by Brian Kraus is out now in NeuroImage , sciencedirect.com/science/articl… where we show that locations of individual differences show high consistency between task and rest states. A thread ... 1/n

My lab Northwestern is in search of a full time Research Assistant for a new project on individual differences in #brain 🧠 organization across the adult #lifespan (newly funded by an NIMH R01 supplement, yay!). Please RT 🙏


Are all individual differences in 🧠 systems driven by local shifts in network boundaries? A new lab preprint led by Ally Dworetsky argues no ⛔️: bit.ly/2Zksvkx We find evidence that isolated "ectopic intrusions" are also common and dissociable from border shifts.


Do twins have more similar patterns of brain activity during movie-watching compared to unrelated individuals? Are BOLD time courses/functional topologies heritable?? Come find out at my SFN poster (P492.04) w/ Gaurav Patel! Discussion: 11/9 from 9:45 AM to 10:45 AM EDT. #SfN21


Check out my first, first-author paper from Dr. Deanna Greene, PhD 's lab in collab with WUNDER Lab! We looked at adding firmm to current gold-standard infant brain MRI protocols and found that it nearly doubled the high-quality fMRI data collected. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…


Are brain networks driven by discrete transient ‘events’ or constantly present? In this new lab preprint led by Zach Ladwig, we examine “events” - single moments of high BOLD cofluctuation - & how they contribute to static functional connectivity. bit.ly/3G6kBL3 🧵👇



1/🧵 We know that 🧠 network organization varies across people, especially in association cortex. But to what extent does this differ across the left and right hemispheres? In a lab pre-print led by Diana C Perez, we dive into this ❓: bit.ly/3JqohsL


Want to study how 🧠 networks are changed during different tasks? Check out this lab paper in Cerebral Cortex: bit.ly/3NXovtI Alexis Porter shows that individual-level models are accurate, outperform cross-subject approaches, and reveal new brain state features


Preprint out on the ⭐️cingulo-opercular⭐️ network, a collab project co-led w/ Maital Neta + Ally Dworetsky bit.ly/3RTQQ79 We take a new 👀 at 1 of our fave 🧠 systems, after addressing indiv variation ➡️ leading us to a new proposal on its subdivision & evolution 🧵


I'm looking for 1-2 post-docs or research faculty to join my lab FSU Department of Psychology ☀️to work on NIH & NSF funded projects related to 🧠 precision brain networks, individual differences, and network breakdown in Parkinson's Disease. Remote work options are negotiable. Please RT 🙏


I’m excited to share our new preprint – led by Hyejin J. Lee & Derek Smith – where we applied precision approaches (i.e., extensive per-participant data collection) to behavioral measures of inhibitory control. osf.io/preprints/psya… A 🧵 …



Ever wonder how people's brains differ from one another? ➡️ Individual differences in 🧠 organization commonly come in 2 forms: shifts in borders & 'ectopic intrusions' far from expected locations Now out in Nature Neuroscience, led by Ally Dworetsky rdcu.be/dGeIp 🧵soon!



📅 Excited to announce our new review article in Trends in Cognitive Sciences, led by Hyejin J. Lee with Ally Dworetsky and Nathan Labora Check it out here: go.illinois.edu/ticsReview 🧵below...


Hi! Excited to announce that the major work from my PhD is out now on biorxiv! (w. coauthors Kian Kermani , Ally Dworetsky , nathan labora , Jo Hernandez , Rodrigo Braga , Derek Evan Nee , Caterina Gratton + others) biorxiv.org/content/10.110… (1/18)
