New AFNI Academy playlist!

This tutorial presents afni_proc.py's quality control HTML for single subject FMRI.

The APQC HTML has systematic views of data and useful derived quantities. Users can instantly rate, comment and query the fully processed subject data.

The result of a large (42 authors!) collaboration:
"Go Figure: Transparency in neuroscience images preserves context and clarifies interpretation"
arxiv.org/abs/2504.07824
TL;DR: The FMRI world can (and should) improve results interpretation and reproducibility *today*, via transparent thresholding.

Do you like genes and estimating heritability? Then @gangchen6.bsky.social and D. Moraczewski have important news for you.

Conventional estimation methods ignore measurement error, leading to a bias. Don't worry: hierarchical modeling to the rescue!

If anyone wants a fun activity in DC over the next couple months, The Textile Museum (at GW) is celebrating its 100th anniversary with an amazing set of, well, textiles from around the globe. Incredible craftsmanship, science, skill & cultural heritages on display. (Museum is free! Open Tue-Sat.)
