all voxels in each region. We also don't usually see this relationship between volume and activity in other contexts, so it seems to be unique to reinstatement.

Great question- this is certainly possible, since we can't rule out the fact that even after normalizing, larger brains will have more "brain" per voxel. But I would say it's unlikely, as we adjusted volume for total intracranial volume and computed reinstatement as an average of the signal across

Strikingly, we also found that cortical volume fully mediated the commonly observed association between age and reinstatement in these regions, meaning differences in reinstatement were explained by cortical volume, independently of age.

I wanted to print it in black or white, but all I had was orange TPU. Though it's kind of growing on me.

Needless to say, I got a little carried away with this, but I'm super happy with how it turned out! I learned a lot from the whole process. I'm also open to feedback and suggestions for improvement :)

Probably my favorite part is this widget I built that automatically fetches my total workout distances for the year from Strava!

I even added a button to change the unit of measure so my fellow Americans 🇺🇸 can understand how far a kilometer is:

Originally, I just meant for this site to be a basic landing page for my CV, but as I worked through the tutorial, I warmed up to the idea of making it into a blog as well.

Now, I plan on using it to post things related to personal projects and hobbies too:

I started with the @astro.build blog tutorial. The tutorial is great and I strongly recommend it as a starting point for learning to build a site from scratch!

this is so cool!
