Clinical 7T gradients can go fast — but peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) stops you at high-res fMRI. ⚡
Meet POPE 🌍: we reshape EPI pulses to dodge PNS exactly when it spikes → robust 0.3mm fMRI, seeing intracortical veins. 🧠

My first PhD project has finally taken shape and is now available as a preprint after 3 years! We found a feedback signature in V1 during Troxler perceptual filling-in using 7T layer-fMRI. Please check it out ;))

If you are setting up the meso-veins protocol for the first time at your 7T (doi.org/10.1126/sciadv.aea45…), you should wath this video where I am providing the most up to date pointers. As well as the tips on quality controlling your images: youtu.be/57URvSjUYRY
Interested in understanding your high-res data better? @ofgulban enhanced LayNii IDA with some very useful QA and interactive viewing tools. In the last LayNii release.

Really cool advancements to map mesoscale vessels
A new MRI protocol can scan the human #brain and its venous network in under 7 minutes, marking it as a potential tool for diagnosing cerebrovascular diseases and monitoring neurodegeneration. @ofgulban scim.ag/3LkRfRY

New auditory layer-fMRI manuscript finds that:
-> deep layers contain content-specific predictions,
-> superficial layers contain prediction–input alignment,
-> all layers contain repetition suppression.

Yesterday, @ofgulban gave a great talk about efficient imaging of small veins.
It was inspiring. Impressive how much information is there waiting to be harvested.

Happy to share that our new preprint is now available!
Digging into our previous dataset, we found a feedforward signature in FFA during passive face image presentations, suggesting face information is structured prior to FFA.
Please find more details in the manuscript 😁
