How reproducible is #fNIRS within a subject? 🧠📍 Wagner et al. (2025) show HbO responses are more reproducible than HbR across 10+ sessions of visual and motor tasks. Source localisation and optode digitisation improved repeatability. 📖 doi.org/10.1016/j.neur…

Through the Foundcog project we scanned 100+ infants with awake fMRI. In this Nature Neuroscience paper led by @ClionaODoherty, we show that, by 2-months, infants’ brains already encode rich representations of object category. Congratulations Clíona on such beautiful results!🧠

1/7 Does the infant brain have representational structure? 👶🧠In the FOUNDCOG project, we scanned 134 awake infants using fMRI. Published in Nature Neuroscience, our research reveals 2-month-old infants already possess complex visual representations in VVC that align with DNNs.
