A trans-Atlantic voyage to see @summerfieldlab.bsky.social after a decade! So many core memories from a most fulfilling time at @wadhamcollege.bsky.social and @oxexppsy.bsky.social that shaped who I am today.

It’s my third time at @fluxsociety.bsky.social and I’m thankful not just for the science, but also the intentional community-building and professional development of trainees. Glad to hear from @cmakowski.bsky.social that not all who wander are lost!

Happy reunion with @silk-tim.bsky.social at #flux2025! He started me on the journey down the white matter rabbit hole, and he’s recruiting for @enigmabrains.bsky.social!

Poster in an hour at T24 #flux2025. Come find out what I’ve been working on this year at the Stanford Center on Early Childhood!

TLDR: there is value in neuroimaging parents for parent-mediated interventions! Also this:

Not just big data, but beautiful visualizations! Raj Chetty also makes the poignant point at the recent @stanforddata.bsky.social lecture that beyond changes in the GDP, what matters even more is how that growth is distributed (especially in the US).

The total WM volume trend is surprising to me given their previous publication - WM volume looked to be increasing exponentially rather than logarithmically at that age range, but I might be missing something...

As 2024 wraps up, a short trip back to Singapore after 16 months away really drove this home (hurhur) for me.

To more rigorous science and deeper relationships in 2025!

I’ll be presenting my first poster as a PhD student this September at the upcoming Flux Congress on neonatal brain age models in premature infants. Please come and have a chat if you’re around in Baltimore!
