🚨Preprint!🚨 So excited to share my 1st major study as a postdoc at @holmeslab-bhi.bsky.social!🤘

www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Using a transdiagnostic framework, we found that brain network dynamics were able to discriminate individualized psychiatric symptom profiles with high accuracy 🧵1/9👇

I'm thrilled to share that my graduate school project was just published in Nature Mental Health! We found that resting-state functional network predictors are more similar within vs between categories of internalizing and externalizing behavior in children (ABCD), adolescents (HBN) and adults (HCP)

This journalistic piece nicely summarizes some advantages of our functional connectivity biomarker for psychosis. Special thanks to my co-authors in making this work possible (Yonatan Abrham, @mwcole.bsky.social @carrisacocuzza.bsky.social, Boyang Hu, Brent Johnson).

“Cognitive flexibility as the shifting of brain network flows by flexible neural representations”, a solo paper by yours truly, making the case that brain activity flow shifts are essential to mental flexibility (and quite interesting too!)

I'm happy to share our Review article, "Cognitive Maps and Schizophrenia", synthesising evidence for representation-level abnormalities in the condition, and proposing directions for future work. Out now in Trends in Cognitive Science.

Not sure if I’m doing this right, but I’ve had a go at starting a ‘Reconceptualising psychopathology’ starter pack (e.g., HiTOP, RDoC, dynamic systems, clinical staging). Please do send me suggestions or requests to be added!

Thought I'd make a starter pack for what I'm currently obsessing over - everything brain dynamics: dFC, network dynamics, attractors, state shifts, info flow, etc!

Please comment to be added, plenty of room! Esp.
