Did you even go to a conference if you didn't pose for (at least) one group photo during the week? 😉📸
📍 Snapshots from #SPIEMedicalImaging 2026 in beautiful Vancouver, BC, Canada.

Just for fun, I put up 29 feet of wire on my ceiling - I had no idea how well it would work as an antenna. I’m catching #hamradio signals from Chile!

I enjoyed presenting our work on phenotype discovery from large-scale traumatic brain injury MRI at the 2025 VISE Symposium this week here at Vanderbilt!

A map of part of a mouse brain, which is expected to be generalisable to people, could help scientists understand behaviours, consciousness and even what it means to be human
Largest mammalian brain map ever could unpick what makes us human
