A framework for advancing mechanistic neuro-behavioral biomarkers in psychiatry Neuropsychiatry has yet to surmount the fundamental challenge of mapping behavioral pathology to its underlying neural pathology. This gap limits the development of treatments for specific circuit pat...

In this review, @kangjoolee.bsky.social and colleagues propose a provisional formalism, considering mechanism type, severity, and time, to map neuropsychiatric behavioral pathology to its underlying dynamic neural mechanisms to advance the development of precision treatments.

Sorry I couldn’t make it open access ! Please give me your email address.

Lastly, we thank the editors and reviewers of @biologicalpsych.bsky.social for their thoughtful feedback and constructive suggestions!

🙏This work was only possible thanks to the support of our amazing former and current team members at Yale Psychiatry, Jie Lisa Ji, Markus Helmer, John D Murray, John Krystal, and Alan Anticevic.

Thank you for your attention!

✅ By integrating genetics, biology to neural mechanisms, and ultimately to brain circuits and symptoms, we outline how imaging could guide personalized treatments for psychiatric disorders in a causal framework.

✅ We posit that the failure to operate within a formalism that defines falsifiable parameters may have hindered progress.

✅ In this ambitious and exciting piece, we argue that the field of psychiatric neuroimaging is moving towards local optima, and propose a new approach that models the dynamics of disease mechanism complexity.

🚀 Excited to share our new review article published in Biological Psychiatry (In Press)! doi.org/10.1016/j.bi...
💡 ❓ I’d love to hear your thoughts, feedback, and ideas on how we can push the boundaries of psychiatric research together and make real clinical impact.

📣 We had a successful in person Brain Mappers of Tomorrow 2025 Edition❗️

The Brain Mappers of Tomorrow are our signature science outreach initiative where we bring neuroscience to young minds 🧠 .

🚀 I'm thrilled to announce that I have been selected as an incoming member of the @OHBM Program Committee! I am very excited about this opportunity and looking forward to contributing to a strong scientific program and helping shape the future of neuroimaging research !! 🥰💪🧠

🚀 I will be presenting about our 🧠 🧲 BrainCAP toolbox at #OHBM in two weeks! 🎉 I'm on the job ⚡ market this year for a tenure-track assistant professor position in #psychiatry and relevant depts, and would love to meet you and chat about research and opportunities!

⚡️ My recent NIH proposal (1K01MH137379-01A1) received an impact score of 38, and its resubmission (1K01MH142847-01), Densely Sampled Longitudinal Mapping of Neuro-symptom Variability in Schizophrenia, is pending IRG review. 4/N

⚡️Using quantitative approaches (e.g. dimensionality reduction, multivariate and ML-driven methods), I conduct multimodal neuroimaging studies with longitudinal phenotyping and computational modelling and neuroinformatics to establish reproducible brain-behavior associations. 3/N

⚡️I use precision functional and anatomical neuroimaging measurements in humans (functional / diffusion MRI, EEG, and PET) and integrate longitudinal assessments and time-series analyses to identify neural circuit abnormalities underlying psychiatric symptoms. 2/N

We will present "BrainCAP: an open-source neuroimaging toolkit to analyze 🧠 co-activation patterns" at #OHBM2025 in an #Oral session! A cool collaboration with Samuel Brege, Zailyn Tamayo, Youngsun Cho (Yale) and Catie Chang (Vanderbilt) - See you all in Brisbane! @ohbmofficial.bsky.social

Dear #neurobluesky! Is there any longitudinal dataset including resting state fMRI and diffusion MRI in patients with depression? I know ABCD includes these data but I'm rather looking for adults participants.

The Brain Connectivity Workshop 2025 will be held just before #OHBM2025 on the paradise that is Minjerribah (North Stradbroke Island) a one hour ferry ride from Brisbane

Registration will open shortly (cost to be <$600 for travel registration & accomodation) so please plan your flights accordingly
