Our open-access study in Human Brain Mapping Journal reveals direct axonal connectivity between the precuneus and temporal pole via the CB-V pathway! Utilizing fiber micro-dissection and tractography across both human and rhesus macaque brains, this study refines our understanding of brain architecture. It opens doors for targeted brain mapping in brain tumor surgery and interventions in neuropsychiatric disorders. Check it out below.

Hey #SOBP2024, stop by poster 122 tonight to learn about network markers of relapse/recurrence in late-life depression (or a cool new technique for resting state network analysis)! As always, there will be pretty brain pictures and and overly enthusiastic pointing. @SOBP

A few days ago, we lost a beloved member of our UPMC Western Psychiatric Hospital family, Aleia Lopez. Her family has established a GoFundMe to help with funeral costs and to help her three children she leaves behind. gofund.me/9a2873e5

Meta-analysis found retrospective measures of childhood maltreatment link more strongly with psychopathology than prospective measures, suggesting that subjective interpretation is a key target for intervention. @jessiebaldwin @andrea_danese ja.ma/4bgOk3P

Fellow neuroimagers: seeking advice on best practices/tips/tricks/black magic for keeping younger children (6.5–9) still in a GE NOVA head coil. Space in this coil is a particular issue and restricts our use of previous techniques. What has worked for you?Retweets are appreciated
