🧵 as promised! ....
Ever wonder how people's brains differ from one another? ➡️ Individual differences in 🧠 organization commonly come in 2 forms: shifts in borders & 'ectopic intrusions' far from expected locations Now out in @NatureNeuro, led by @allydworetsky rdcu.be/dGeIp 🧵soon!

I’m excited to share our new preprint – led by @hyejinjadelee & Derek Smith – where we applied precision approaches (i.e., extensive per-participant data collection) to behavioral measures of inhibitory control. osf.io/preprints/psyarxiv/rj… A 🧵 …

Preprint out on the ⭐️cingulo-opercular⭐️ network, a collab project co-led w/ @profmaitalneta @allydworetsky bit.ly/3RTQQ79 We take a new 👀 at 1 of our fave 🧠 systems, after addressing indiv variation ➡️ leading us to a new proposal on its subdivision & evolution 🧵

Want to study how 🧠 networks are changed during different tasks? Check out this lab paper in Cerebral Cortex: bit.ly/3NXovtI @alexis_porter21 shows that individual-level models are accurate, outperform cross-subject approaches, and reveal new brain state features

Excited to present at #CNS2022! Come by poster F17 on Tuesday to hear about stability & reliability of precision rsFC measurements in older adults 🧠 As a bonus, we looked at stability & reliability of segregation indices with high amts of data. Spoiler: more data is better 😉

1/🧵 We know that 🧠 network organization varies across people, especially in association cortex. But to what extent does this differ across the left and right hemispheres? In a lab pre-print led by @_DCPerez_, we dive into this ❓: bit.ly/3JqohsL

A dream come true, now out @Nature w @tervoclemmensb nature.com/articles/s41586-0… I started this project before knowing my wife and kid. Science can be a slog, this one was worth it. Pointing towards an exciting future for brain-behavior research. A🧵👇

Are brain networks driven by discrete transient ‘events’ or constantly present? In this new lab preprint led by @zladwig, we examine “events” - single moments of high BOLD cofluctuation - & how they contribute to static functional connectivity. bit.ly/3G6kBL3 🧵👇

Check out my first, first-author paper from @DeannaJGreene 's lab in collab with @wunder_lab! We looked at adding @firmmsoftware to current gold-standard infant brain MRI protocols and found that it nearly doubled the high-quality fMRI data collected. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Do twins have more similar patterns of brain activity during movie-watching compared to unrelated individuals? Are BOLD time courses/functional topologies heritable?? Come find out at my SFN poster (P492.04) w/ @neurofreak! Discussion: 11/9 from 9:45 AM to 10:45 AM EDT. #SfN21

Are all individual differences in 🧠 systems driven by local shifts in network boundaries? A new lab preprint led by @allydworetsky argues no ⛔️: bit.ly/2Zksvkx We find evidence that isolated "ectopic intrusions" are also common and dissociable from border shifts.

Excited to announce that a new lab paper led by @KrausBt is out now in @NeuroImage_EiC , sciencedirect.com/science/ar… where we show that locations of individual differences show high consistency between task and rest states. A thread ... 1/n

We have a new lab preprint (led by Derek Smith, @_DCPerez_ @alexis_porter21, @allydworetsky) psyarxiv.com/9e28n/ on the importance of individualized fMRI approaches in cognitive control, esp to address specificity/multi-functionality of regions Let us know what you think
