First first-author paper out!! We show that T1w cortical MRI markers (often interpreted as representing myelin) have high spatial overlap with glial cell markers, but diverging age trends, hence likely different biological properties driving these trends doi.org/10.1002/hbm.26…

Published in HBM!! Can T1w and T2w scans index microstructure and myelin as many have done? Olivier Parent's deep dive using Allen Institute BigBrain data Aurélie Bussy Stephanie Tullo Nadia Blostein Alyssa Dai Valiquette Vanessa Saashi Bedford Christine Tardif Gabriel A. Devenyi

Our latest global effort (led by twitterles Varun Warrier from Cambridge Psychiatry and Dept of Psychology ) to map the genetic architecture of the human 🧠 is now live! Massive thank you to all co-authors!! nature.com/articles/s4158…

The genetics of human brain phenotypes....I learnt a lot working on this terrific paper w Varun Warrier Richard Bethlehem Cam Neuroscience....DNA has much to teach us about MRI, for sure | thanks UKBIOBANK UKBIOBANK NIHR Cambridge Biomedical Research Centre Nature Genetics Full content ▶️ rdcu.be/djOac incl code, data

Are you interested in imaging genomics🧬? Check out our new article on the genetic architecture of the human cortex nature.com/articles/s4158… We performed GWAS + downstream analyses on 13 MRI modalities in 180 🧠 areas The GWAS for all 2,347 MRI phenotypes are ready to download

Really excited to share this preprint by David MacDonald Variation in subcortical structures in autism and their relationship to sex, behaviour, and functioning. Really careful and detailed analysis here 👇🏾👇🏾 biorxiv.org/content/10.110… We're open to feedback!!

New paper in Imaging Neuroscience The MIT Press @mitpress.bsky.social by Saashi A. Bedford, Richard A.I. Bethlehem, et al: The impact of quality control on cortical morphometry comparisons in autism direct.mit.edu/imag/article/d…

Our first one in Imaging Neuroscience EiC - check out this exciting validation effort of imaging QC led by the amazing Saashi Bedford from the Richard Bethlehem lab at AutismResearchCentre Dept of Psychology Cambridge Psychiatry

Big news new!! Excellent work here by Stephanie Tullo with Marco A Maximo Prado 🌻 and team examining the prion like spreading of alpha-synuclein and it’s impact on brain atrophy using MRI and cognition using touchscreens So excited to see this one out 👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾

Congratulations boss Mallar Chakravarty!

Great new work from Olivier Parent examining the how different MRI contrasts may help us understand variation in white matter hyper intensities in @BrainComms 👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾

Our new article “The genetic relationships between brain structure and schizophrenia” is now published at Nature Communications🎉 nature.com/articles/s4146… See 🧵 below Thanks to my co-authors Richard Bethlehem Lena Dorfschmidt Hyejung Won varun warrier and Ed Bullmore

Congrats Eva! 🥳

Another tour the force by Saashi Bedford and team! medrxiv.org/content/10.110…

Excited to share a synopsis of my thesis entitled: "Imaging genetics evidence for the neurodevelopmental model of schizophrenia" The neurodevelopmental model is the most prominent model of schizophrenia and can be described using four key hypotheses.

Thrilled to share our new publication out in eLife - the journal, where we use sMRI to conduct the first comparative neuroimaging study of sex-specific neuroanatomy of the human and mouse brain. Check it out: elifesciences.org/articles/92200
