Do you work on surface MRI such as HCP data? Our paper is finally out in Imaging Neuroscience, showing biases in surface fMRI. The revised ms has many new insights!
TLDR: Vertices are much closer to each other in sulci, resulting in (fake) high spatial autocorrelation. (1/5)

Spurious correlations in surface-based functional brain imaging
doi.org/10.1162/imag_a_00478
I'm proud of this work, and I hope this paper helps you to avoid spurious conclusions in your work. Check out the full paper (tinyurl.com/gyral) for a detailed breakdown and for other downstream analyses that can be impacted (FC fingerprinting, hyperalignment, etc). (5/5)
This was a team effort! @KoussisNikitas @tremodian @Sina_Mansour_L @AndrewZalesky @DrBreaky @phogat_richa @jchrispang
Amazing paper !

In markets, there are price bubbles. In science, are there popularity bubbles? When promising research gets hyped up, it can lead to a burst of activity followed by a dramatic collapse, shows huge bibliometric study @Nature Magazine l.sslevine.com/Ex7z
Wow. Most recent openAI model o3 smashes the prev leaderboard for ARC-AGI reasoning challenge. It is also now the 175th best coder in the world (CodeForces challenge), and can solve 25% of hard-for-humans FrontierMath Qs (up from 2%). What does this all mean?

I've combined some of these together into a new #neuro #visualization "In the eye of a fly":
Using the @FlyWireNews visual system wiring diagram, #Brian2 spiking #neuron simulator, and #blender. Information flow through the chiasms, across a topographic map.
Wow

This way! Every neuro program should just make this required reading and teach students how to do outstanding science like this.

Awesome new work by @DrPhilipMosley ! Combining facial video analysis and fMRI analysis with hidden Markov models to understand the unique features of melancholic depression
Our paper is out in @molpsychiatry with a cast of superstars! #OpenAccess

Can AI agents design better AI agents?
We describe a newly forming research area "Automated Design of Agentic Systems" (ADAS) that aims to automatically design powerful agents & a new method where a meta agent invents new agents by programming them in code. Led by @shengranhu 🧵

Even in MEG and EEG, anatomical info can leak into functional data, yielding spuriously perfect fingerprinting

I’m excited to introduce Integrated Alignment! A new method for inter-subject MRI alignment that fuses standard diffeomorphic alignment (MSMSulc/MSMAll) and functional alignment (hyperalignment). Read on! (1/6) doi.org/10.1162/imag_a_00253
That concludes this TweePrint. Many thanks to my co-authors @KoussisNikitas @tremodian @DrBreaky. Check out the full paper for all the cool details I've glossed over. 6/6

Could be of interest to folk working on hyperalignment / functional alignment - @mafeilong @BertrandThirion @fMRIstats @haxbylab
