The landmark ongoing HEALthy Brain and Cognitive Development (HBCD) study will longitudinally chart brain development in a large sample (projected n=7,200) of infants through age 10 years with multimo...

This spatial scale, bridging cells and brain areas, has been overlooked in human brain research. But advances in fMRI technology are changing that.

Catherine Lebel leads the Developmental Neuroimaging Lab, a neuroscience research team at the University of Calgary. Our mission is to generate & share knowledge of brain development across childhood ...

Advances in brain imaging technology provide new and different information about the brain.

We characterized motion during diffusion MRI scans across 16,995 image sessions and find that (1) modern preprocessing pipelines effectively mitigate motion to the point where biases are not detectab....

Individual variability in behavior is influenced by social identities. Here, Dhamala et al. discuss the need to incorporate social identities in neuroimaging studies of behavior and explore how to fos...

Our tendency to focus on one condition at a time likely silos expertise and services—and obscures critical connections across diagnostic categories.

A reader of the peer-reviewed neuroscience literature will often encounter expressions like the following: ‘the brain is a dynamic system’, ‘the brain is a complex network’, or ‘the brain is a highly ...

In the current issue of Biological Psychiatry, Zhang et al. (1) present a study describing associations between cortical microstructure in prefrontal areas and emotionality in infants, linking early brain structure with behavioral measures that predict later psychopathology. Neuroimaging research in infants, such as in this study, is challenging for many reasons, but Zhang et al. (1) present a good example of how neuroimaging research in infants can be conducted well and lead to interesting and potentially meaningful results.

For The Transmitter’s first annual book, five contributing editors reflect on what subfields demand greater focus in the near future—from dynamical systems and computation to technologies for studying...
