| Trying to squeeze better brain juice from fMRI
An exciting 🆕 extension of our sLFO/FC inflation work (www.nature.com/articles/s41...)

Extracting the sLFO signal from BOLD data not only sharpens FC estimates..

..the sLFO itself - via links to arousal - captures variability in trait + state drug use phenotypes: tinyurl.com/msanmrnc

Systemic physiological "noise" in fMRI has clinical relevance
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is central to studying neurobiological mechanisms, yet fMRI has limited clinical utility, highlighting the need for novel approaches. We show that a compon...

How do we focus on the task in front of us amidst emotionally salient distractors?

Our new paper details the numerous cogs churning simultaneously in the brain to stave off "emotion interference" and focus on task goals

Disentangling large-scale brain dynamics and their links to behavior during the emotional face matching task - Communications Biology
Tensor independent component analysis reveals the concurrent brain processes at work during emotion interference suppression and how individual differences relate to cognitive fitness.

#MentalHealth status is written somewhere in #Brain activity

But even in today’s most marvelously modeled, spotlessly cleaned🧠data, the writing is barely legible

Why? Perhaps,🧠activity evoked by typical🧠scanning conditions just has little MH info🧵

How do little ol' 💊s come to perturb big ol' 🧠 networks?

In new work led by Justine Hill, we show that small but widespread effects on individual connections, which in aggregate can reconfigure regional input profiles, are key:

Catecholaminergic Modulation of Large‐Scale Network Dynamics Is Tied to the Reconfiguration of Corticostriatal Connectivity
At rest, the dopamine/norepinephrine agonist, methylphenidate, enhances time spent in external and internal attentional neurobiological states (DAN and DMN, respectively), suggesting the brain is pri...
