Frustrated with DSM?
Interested in @HiTOP_system as a potential alternative?
Check our latest, led by J Tiego, using a bottom-up approach in a transdiagnostic twin sample evaluating the validity & heritability of the HiTOP model:

New preprint alert 🧠
Ever wondered how the cortex and hippocampus communicate during health and what changes during disease?
With @DrBreaky and an amazing team, we built the first geometry-aware model of cortico-hippocampal interactions to answer this.

Here, we tried a different approach, informed by neural field theory (NFT). We have previously provided evidence to support a key prediction of NFT; namely, that cortical geometry constrains function:
