It's really nice when people actually use software that you create. This is an updated usage figure for the MRIQC.org Web API showing continued usage for the last 7 years, with more than half a million unique BOLD images in BIDS datasets! If you aren't already using MRIQC, check it out!

Brain microscopy with annotations for better understanding ☺️! What if we take a deep dive into the cerebral sulcus? The grey matter has the neurons' cell bodies🔵, and while microglia🟣are more evenly distributed, astrocytes🟡 shape changes in the white matter. #Neuroscience #Microscopy 🧠🔬

This is one of the most consequential papers on accessibility for surgical discipline residents with hearing loss - journals.lww.com/academicmedi... The supplementary information is even more informative. Should be compulsory reading for all surgical residency program directors.

Dear #Botany2025 speakers - please DO use the microphone (stand by the podium so it can pick you up) so that those of us who have hearing issues/are hard of hearing/are d/Deaf can hear your excellent science! Thanks!

Props to the meeting organizers for setting up subtitles in Powerpoint, yayyyyyy

How do neurons know their final position in the brain? They use a combination of chemical signals & physical guidance by radial glia 🟡. My favorite cell type in the brain is also temporary! After cortical development, most will transform into astrocytes. Nuclei of cells in🔵 #SciArt #Microscopy
