Is resting-state functional connectivity (rsFC) or cortical thickness (CT) more effective at capturing sex and gender differences in the brains of preadolescents?

After a high dose of psilocybin, the brain desynchronizes at a massive scale, causing loss of our sense of self, time, and space. This may drive the burst of plasticity caused by psychedelics. The next day, brain activity has largely returned to normal, but an echo remains – a reset of circuits critical to the sense of self.
Our study is out today in @Nature nature.com/articles/s41586-0…

Our paper “A Precision Functional Atlas of Personalized Network Topography and Probabilities” is out now in @NatureNeuro! The MIDB Precision Brain Atlas is a collection of individualized neural network maps from n~10,000 and probabilistic atlases (1/8) rdcu.be/dCvuC

Introducing the Action-Mode Network – AMN. Better late than never! 17 years ago, we clumsily called this the Cingulo-opercular Network (CON) based on its anatomy (we weren’t exactly sure what it does). Now we’ve finally got the evidence to give it the functional name it deserves: the Action-mode Network (AMN). Find our arguments here: osf.io/preprints/psyarxiv/2v… with the peerless Marc Raichle and the brilliant @gordonneuro. 🧵 ↓

How to find massive motor plasticity effects in the subcortex? Find out in our preprint. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… Turns out these new findings change our understanding of #Parkinson disease and some #sleep processes. Let me unfold it

We’ve parcellated the neonatal cortical surface based on abrupt changes in functional connectivity, resulting in a set of 283 highly homogenous cortical surface parcels in a sample of n=261 neonates.
Preprint now available!

Now available at @NatureComms !
When do adolescents reach adult levels of executive function? We used FOUR independent datasets (N>10,000), behavioral data from 17 distinct EF tasks, and nonlinear modeling to address this and related questions.

1/5. Wanna know the RSFC behavioral prediction comparison between parcellations🧠 and gradients🌈? Our paper is officially out doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage…
We predict behavioral measures in HCP and ABCD datasets with optimized resolutions for different approaches.

We take a deeper dive into multivariate #BWAS (Brain-Wide Association Studies) reproducibility with additional methods that further emphasize the need for large sample sizes for BWAS
