Great to host an impromptu workshop on phantoms for #fNIRS measurements of cytochrome-c-oxidase yesterday! Looking forward to co-creating a standard for this, if anyone is interested in getting involved let us know

Do you ever think about what your brain does when it's solving a puzzle? Two weeks ago, I was at @GreenManFest running “Mind Games: your brain on puzzles” in Einstein’s Garden alongside @CurlyFriedMaxMH, @Eva_Higg and @dralicemorrell

In this second episode, Georgina explains how to move forward and backward while #IceSkating. She demonstrates how spinning utilises angular momentum and discusses the mechanics of jumping, including the vertical push and the impact forces upon landing. #Physics #WhatsYourGame

In this 2-episode series, PhD student Georgina Leadley explores the captivating sport of ice skating. In the first episode, she explains the physics of friction on the ice. #Iceskating is both beautiful and challenging due to minimal #friction between the blades and the ice.

Brilliant talk today by @DAcharya_ at #LGS2024 on NIRS metrics of glymphatics - exciting times ahead for our sleep work in Cambridge!
Earlier this year, we published "Towards an Interpretable Functional Image-Based Classifier: Dimensionality Reduction of High-Density Diffuse Optical Tomography Data" - check it out if you're interested in #fNIRS and #MachineLearning

The best Christmas present I could have asked for - being a published author! 📚
Helped along by my supervisors @GemmaBale and Prof Topun Austin, writing this review was a great experience!
More to come next year…👀

In this episode, delve into the fascinating world of near-infrared #spectroscopy with Georgina Leadley. She explains the basic principle of near-infrared spectroscopy, revealing how light penetrates the skull and travels into the brain to generate 3D images of brain activity.🌟🧠
