Unintended bias in the pursuit of collinearity solutions in fMRI analysis Abstract. In task functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), collinearity between task regressors in time series models may impact power. When collinearity is identified after data collection, rese...

Our new paper is out! It offers a tool to assess collinearity impact on contrast estimates
*and*
uses simulations + MID data to show how common collinearity avoidance strategies can bias results.

Huge thanks to @russpoldrack.org , M Demidenko, and the ABCD folks.

Dense Phenotyping of Human Brain Network Organization Using Precision fMRI The advent of noninvasive imaging methods like functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) transformed cognitive neuroscience, providing insights into large-scale brain networks and their link to cog...

Why do brain networks vary? Do these differences shape behavior? If every 🧠 is unique, how can we detect common features of brain organization?
