Generalising #FSL XTRACT to 5 Macaque templates out now @BrainStrucFunc! Increasing flexibility in probing brain differences/similarities across evolution/development with our WM-based framework! @SNSotiropoulos @SPMIC_UoN @OxfordWIN @NeuroecologyLab rdcu.be/dztRo

A genetic link between myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) and #autism spectrum disorder may explain how autism develops in the general population. Read more about the #SKResearch in @NatureNeuro⤵️ sickkids.ca/en/news/archiv…

New Nature Communications paper! We developed the first MRI-based atlas mapping neurotransmitter disruptions in stroke, opening doors for personalized treatments. Full article: rdcu.be/edHcH #Neuroscience #StrokeResearch #MRI #Neurotransmitters

Our latest work is online today @ScienceAdvances ➡️Brain connectivity in carriers of high risk mutations for #autism and #schizophrenia U-turns across adolescence (hyper -> hypo) ➡️This switch is driven by synaptic remodeling science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… Full explainer below 👇

Can we use brain scans to identify biologically distinct "autisms"? And If so, how? In our latest cross-species study 🐭👨we dive into these questions! Find out more here 👇👇 biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Thread below 🧵 1/n

Curious about human brain development through an animal model? 🧠🐒Check out our new preprint on Brain Charts of the Rhesus Macaque Lifespan! We've mapped normative trajectories for macaque brains using 1.5k MRI scans from PRIME-DE and collaborators! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
