🌟Grad students at #CNS2024 or upcoming #SOBP2024, I would love to meet you! I’m looking to hire a postdoc interested in cognition (attention, executive function, etc), brain networks, development, environment/experience, and/or mental health in the near future — let’s chat! 🌟

Our paper "Functional connectivity development along the sensorimotor-association axis enhances the cortical hierarchy” is now out in @naturecomms! nature.com/articles/s4146… Findings are summarized in our thread below👇🏼

Our paper "Generalizable links between borderline personality traits and functional connectivity" is now (officially) out in Biological Psychiatry!! Article link: doi.org/10.1016/j.biop… More details available in the thread below!

1/ Really excited to share: Language in Brains, Minds, and Machines w Nancy Kanwisher @[email protected] Ev (like in 'evidence', not Eve) Fedorenko 🇺🇦 Annual Reviews We survey the insights that language models (LMs) provide on the question of how language is represented and processed in the human brain. rb.gy/8afztv

‼️JOIN US‼️ Christos Davatzikos and I are looking for a neuroinformatics data manager at the Penn AI2D center!! Role is focused management/sharing of extremely large imaging datasets. Salary for the right candidate in range of $80-95k (staff or post-doc!). ai2d.med.upenn.edu Pls RT!

A developmental “truth” is that the language system starts bilateral and left-lateralizes w/ age. Amanda Marie O'Brien & I co-led a large-scale 🧠study tinyurl.com/LangNetDevPrep & found lateralization is already adult-like by age 4! w/ Ev (like in 'evidence', not Eve) Fedorenko 🇺🇦, John Gabrieli, Rebecca Saxe🧵 1/n

We are interviewing for our open sr. neuroinformatics data manager position!! Apply here: bit.ly/44ToK39. Fun science + great environment, team, salary/benefits. Experience w/ DataLad @[email protected] is a real plus. Thx for any RTs!

(1/13) We are beyond delighted to announce the public release of the data for the Reproducible Brain Charts (#RBC) effort – a 100% open data resource for study of the developing brain + psychiatry, funded by National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) reprobrainchart.github.io

Congratulations to Rachel Romeo, PhD, CCC-SLP on being the 2024 recipient of the Flux Young Investigator Award

are you ready for the last project from my phd?? I tested whether white matter connections of vtc are innate. paper is now on bioRxiv (biorxiv.org/content/10.110…) & 🧵below.

Thrilled to share our preprint introducing ComBatLS, a new data harmonization method that preserves covariates’ (e.g. age and sex) effects on variance! (1/2) biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

5 years ago, on the heels of 28andMe, our team designed a new precision imaging experiment: scanning an individual’s brain throughout her entire pregnancy. We are excited to share that these findings are out today in Nature Neuroscience! nature.com/articles/s4159…

What happens when you go beyond tract averages to study white matter development along tracts? *hint* Some wildly stark patterns appear. Come chat with me at poster 37 on Monday's session!! #Flux2024

Is anyone else submitting abstracts for #OHBM2025 getting persistent payment declines? I've tried 4 payment methods and two browsers. Nothing seems to be going through :( OHBM any official guidance? Thanks!

(1/17) Now out on bioRxiv‼️Reproducible Brain Charts: An open data resource for mapping brain development and its associations with mental health | doi.org/10.1101/2025.0… Funded by National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH)

We think of white matter as the brain's highways—uniform conduits between cortices. What if we study development along tracts? Turns out the journey matters as much as the cortical destination! We're thrilled to share “Two Axes of White Matter Development”bit.ly/wmaxes

(1/3) New work from our lab and Bennett Landman (Vanderbilt MASI Lab) creating White matter brain charts across the lifespan. Brain charts for 72 pathways, both microstructure (DTI) and macrostructure (volumes, lengths) - using data from >40 harmonized population studies biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

What are the organizing dimensions of language processing? We show that voxel responses are organized along 2 main axes: processing difficulty & meaning abstractness—revealing an interpretable, topographic representational basis for language processing shared across individuals.

The thalamocortical structural connectivity shown in this Nat Neuro paper by Valerie Sydnor and Ted Satterthwaite 🔗 nature.com/articles/s4159… Looks remarkably similar to a tract-to-region connectome of the thalamocortical pathway. Fascinating work!
