1/ Excited about network neuroscience🧠but unsure how to turn your fMRI data into a connectome? 😵‍💫 Our systematic evaluation of fMRI pipelines for functional connectomics is just out @natcomms! We compare 768 pipelines, across 5 criteria, in 3 datasets doi.org/10.1038/s41467-024-4…

Artificial intelligence researchers have built a new class of “liquid” neural networks that process inputs in a nonlinear way. In certain scenarios, these networks handily outperform conventional neural networks. quantamagazine.org/researche…

Last night I captured an 85 megapixel photo of our moon by using two telescopes and two cameras. Check out the details up close! The color is real, but much more subtle to your eyes. Increasing saturation reveals the rich geological history of our moon!

Has a new mechanism of psychedelic action been discovered? Hmmm... depends... Everyone is talking about a fascinating new paper published this week showing that psychedelics activate 5HT2A receptors *inside* neurons, rather than on the outside… 1/2

Finally our model for virtual deep brain stimulation was published 😃 Can we use modeling to understand and optimize DBS? We designed a multiscale brain network model to study the effects of DBS on a Parkinson’s disease patient network and found…🧵👇 sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Unser Wissenschaftssystem ist seit Langem krank und braucht dringend eine Generalüberholung. Obwohl seit über 2 Jahren gefühlt täglich über Wissenschaft geredet wird, hat kaum jemand die leiseste Ahnung, was in den Laboren und Bibs dieses Landes so alles abgeht.

The first and last article that I had the chance to write with @Martin_FortierD before he passed away is now published in @NeuroConsc. It's a short commentary on Bayne and Carter's "Dimensions of consciousness in the psychedelic state". 1/8 academic.oup.com/nc/article/…
