The history and future of resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging - Nature This Review provides an overview of the history of resting-state functional MRI research, which has helped to reveal the spatiotemporal organization of the brain, and discusses how it can contribute f...

When I first started working with resting state fMRI as a postdoc, there was a lot of skepticism about what we could learn from it. 20 years later, it's hard to imagine where the field of neuroscience would be without it. Here's a summary ๐Ÿง  www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Iโ€™m extremely excited that this work of 3 years is finally published in @braistimjournal.bsky.social. Using condition-and-perturb TMS with e-field-based optimized targeting and dosing, we provide causal evidence for hybrid theories of semantic cognition: www.researchgate.net/publication/...

Causal Contributions of Left Inferior and Medial Frontal Cortex to Semantic and Executive Control Semantic control guides the targeted and context-based retrieval from semantic memory. The overlap with and dissociation from domain-general executive control in the frontal lobe remains contentious. ...

๐Ÿง  How do semantic and executive control dissociate in the frontal lobe? Applying TMS to IFG and pre-SMA, we find:

โ–ธ IFG = semantic (and executive) control
โ–ธ pre-SMA = executive functions

A network correspondence toolbox for quantitative evaluation of novel neuroimaging results - Nature Communications Here, the authors present the Network Correspondence Toolbox, which enables researchers to examine and report spatial correspondence between their neuroimaging results and widely used brain atlases.

It's finally here! Use the Network Correspondence Toolbox to help contextualize your neuroimaging findings ๐Ÿง

Happy to share my last PhD work "Genetic, transcriptomic, metabolic, and neuropsychiatric underpinnings of cortical functional gradients". We used UKB, HCP, and QTAB to analyze the genetics of functional gradients. The results are so good, consistent, and inspiring! (1/3)

Executive Resources Shape the Effects of Language Predictability Across the Adult Lifespan Humans predict upcoming language effortlessly, but the cognitive costs of these predictions remain debated. In this study, we demonstrate that limiting executive resources through a concurrent task re...

Postdoc @drsandramartin.bsky.social presented her research on aging effects on predictive processing in language at the Dallas Aging and Cognition Conference this week. Results show that as we age, we increasingly rely on our internal predictions, possibly as compensation for executive decline. 1/2
