High versus low human milk exposure after preterm birth is associated with a cortical morphology (from diffusion and structural MRI) that more closely resembles that of healthy infants born at term. medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
Breast milk exposure is associated with cortical maturation in preterm infants

Breast milk exposure is associated with cortical maturation in preterm infants

Objective Breast milk exposure is associated with improved neurocognitive outcomes following preterm birth but the neural substrates linking nutrition with outcome are uncertain. By combining...

1/4 New preprint on Brain Asymmetries in the @uk_biobank 🧠🎉 with @HugoPeyre, @R3RT0 & @FranckRamus! We show that the Asymmetry Index scales with regional and global brain size! [AI= (Left-Right Measure) / (Left + Right Measure)] biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
Comparing Brain Asymmetries Independently of Brain Size

Comparing Brain Asymmetries Independently of Brain Size

Studies examining cerebral asymmetries typically divide the L-R Measure (e.g., Left– Right Volume) by the L+R Measure to obtain an Asymmetry Index (AI). However, contrary to widespread belief, such a...

Thank you to APPG officer Laura Trott MP for securing a constructive commitment from @10DowningStreet today at #PMQs on parental access to neonatal intensive care units during the pandemic. And thank you to the Prime Minister for reaffirming parents as partners in care. #NICU

The censored Disparities and BME report “did not survive contact with Matt Hancock’s office” over the weekend. They removed anything related to discrimination and structural racism. hsj.co.uk/story.aspx?storyCo…

Exclusive: Government censored BAME covid-risk review

The government removed a key section from Public Health England's review of the relative risk of covid-19 to specific groups, HSJ has discovered.

That so many people in public life are contracting #coronavirus suggests very strongly that the official figures for the population at large are massively under-estimated.

Rather amazingly, we are not in EU ventilator scheme because government didn’t get or didn’t see relevant emails.

Brilliant!

On a more positive note - guess which neonatal reg boshed in a grey cannula in an actual adult at a delivery with ?PPH cos everyone else was struggling? Those grey cannula things are massive though. Like, bigger than some of the ET tubes we use. Even I winced as it went in!

Celebrating the one and only Dr. @jakob_seidlitz ! What a pleasure it’s been to science together these last few years. Am excited for the next phase of our collaboration. Here’s to the road ahead, and all the good you will do as you walk it Jakob!

I look at brain pictures using computers.
This is brilliant thread describing two new preprints that take beautifully deep and careful dives into the idea of coordinated functional connectivity between edges in brain networks. Congrats @richardfbetzel @spornslab labs! Killer stuff!
