🌊 Carina Heller & co explored brain volume changes across typical and atypical menstrual cycles. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

When @laurapritschet.bsky.social & Pavel Shapturenka set out to build the 28&Me + 28&He datasets, I don't think any of us could've predicted the spectacularly creative ways the datasets would be used years later. That's the power of open science. 👇🏼

Thrilled to share that I have been awarded a @bbrfoundation.bsky.social Young Investigator Grant!

Stay tuned for the irregular cycles movement!!!

The beginning of the irregular cycles movement!! Get round it!☺️🧠💪🏼

We wrote a piece for @naturemedicine.bsky.social 🧠

Menstrual cycle irregularities can be both cause and consequence of wide-ranging health issues.
Embracing this complexity could reveal novel brain–body interactions and advance neuroscience.

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to present our research on the impact of hormonal contraceptives intake on brain structure in an adolescent sample 🫶

To better understand how oral contraceptives affect the brain, neuroscientist Carina Heller volunteered herself as a subject. She plans to make her data—from her many brain scans, blood tests and more—openly available.
