A publication bias exists against the publication of negative findings in neuroimaging experiments, while these can be of great value...
Here's my scientific commentary on a pearl of a negative fMRI paper by Amar Awad and colleagues from Umeå University:

Zet de datum vast in je agenda! 📌

Op zaterdag 25 mei 2024 vindt de vierde editie van onze patiëntendag plaats 😄 De officiële uitnodiging met programma volgt nog!

📢 Calling all FND community (patients, caregivers, professionals, etc.)! 🌟

Please consider joining and sharing this survey by the Uni of Sheffield, UK (Whittaker et al) 📋

Let's move closer to tailored measures for functional seizures! 🧠💡

“The convergence of diverse diseases onto a limited number of phenotypic patterns suggests that the sensorimotor system breaks in a limited number of ways.” Oh the joys, and use, of phenotyping! Thank you for this pearl Anna Sadnicka and Mark Edwards. …mentdisorders.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/md…

Dear friends and colleagues, we are organising 'Amrita School of Neuro-electrophysiology' on December 10, 2023. Please share this with your residents and fellows...@IAN @AIIMS RDA LHMC Amrita Hospital, Faridabad Amrita Hospital, Kochi dr ranjith PGIMER & Dr.RML Hospital SCTIMST

Such an amazing group! Fun, efficient, relevant… it’s a pleasure to collaborate: stay tuned for the first paper by the tremor people involved 📩 #MDSCongress

An #MDScongress highlight, the discussion of patients in the grand rounds session with such warmth and integrity, as well as knowledge and skill by Sarah Camargos, Ai Huey Tan, Stephen Reich and Francesca Morgante.

📌SAVE THE DATE: 5th International Conference on Functional Neurological Disorder next year in Italy! 🇮🇹
This multi-disciplinary conference brings together international experts from a range of backgrounds including neurology, physiology, psychiatry, psychology and ethics.

After 8 years as postdoc, I finally managed to get my first research grant with great help from Marina De Koning-Tijssen Michael Biehl 📯 ⚛️🧮🧠 @michaelbiehl (blue) George Azzopardi Madelein van der Stouwe and Inge Tuitert.

The grant will cover 2 PhD positions to investigate hyperkinetic movement disorders using 3D cameras and fMRI.

🗣️We beginnen de zomer goed!

Jelle Dalenberg Madelein van der Stouwe, Inge Tuitert & Marina De Koning-Tijssen hebben in samenwerking met het University of Groningen Bernoulli Instituut een NWO subsidie gekregen!🎉

🗣 May 9-13, the European congress for Clinical Neurophysiology took place in Marseille. Our centre was represented by our very own Dr. Madelein van der Stouwe!

She discussed how clinical neurophysiological techniques can help distinguish between trembling (tremor) & shaking (myoconus).

Yes! Happy to report that the wonderful Francesca Morgante has landed in Marseille! We will discuss clinical neurophysiology for movement disorders together with Josep Valls-Sole at 14.00 in the auditorium. Tremor, myoclonus, FND, parkinson… Please come join us! #ECCN2023

📢 It was a very succesful MDS-ES school for Clinical Neurophysiology in Movement Disorders last week which took place at our expertise center in Groningen! Of course, we will recap the other days too!

The second day focused on tremor, and the third on dystonia!

First MDS school for Neurophysiology in Movement Disorders has started! Introduction by the only and one Marina De Koning-Tijssen 🧠 thanks MDS

People are happier to help than we expect.

Data: we overestimate how inconvenienced they’ll feel—and underestimate how valued they’ll feel.

Asking isn't always a burden. It's often an opportunity to help others feel capable and useful.

Seeking help is an expression of trust.
