Every time I see this show advertised I think it’s “Poldrack” as in @russpoldrack.org 😂

Coming up on 1 month post-surgery, have completed 60 days of EMA, 20 sessions of MRI, 16 sessions of fNIRS, 20 sessions of EEG, not to mention blood, saliva, and a host of other data collection. It's been super fun to hang out with folks in my colleagues' labs. (Also a little exhausting!)

So glad my kids were drawing upside-down hearts today.
It’s too bad they didn’t have time to color this one in all the way…

Post surgery day 1 data collection complete ✅

We are using multiple modalities — including MRI, EEG, fNIRS, blood, saliva, accelerometry—to study mental health, brain plasticity, fitness, and more. I've been doing baseline measurements regularly for the past month, and will continue these during recovery.

Yes we editors are still working through papers submitted over the summer
Turns out academics both (a) take time off over the summer and (b) don't like taking reviews on the first week of classes
go figure

38 research teams analyzed the same fNIRS data...Really nice visualization of the variety of processing pipelines people use from Meryem Yücel, Rob Luke, et al.:
"fNIRS reproducibility varies with data quality, analysis pipelines, and researcher experience"

I got asked by an editor why I haven't accepted reviewer invitations from NeuroImage lately, here's my response

The problem with sending a professor a news article about their research for "fact checking" is that we are actually professional writers and can't help making "suggestions" 🤣

Not unexpected but still nice news to get.
Also a relief I didn't need to submit my CURRENT teaching evals with my materials for this! 🤣😬

Regardless of the method, as a group, studies of speech production implicate a broadly distributed network of regions encompassing regions related to motor planning, motor execution, and feedback—with interactions still being uncovered. (3/3)
