Neural dynamics reveal foraging-like computations in the frontal cortex The prefrontal cortex has a central role in flexible behavior. Computations for weighing alternatives, committing to an option, integrating evidence, and abandoning an option are dominantly formalized...

Western prof, grad share diverse medical illustrations - Western News A Western professor and Western graduate created a free, open-source database with diverse medical illustrations to better represent those using them.

A new set of #physiology illustrations that are diverse, easy to use, and free are now available thanks to the efforts of a @westernu.ca prof and grad:

rsfMRI of the claustrum in 234 scans in awake marmosets, now in press at @imagingneurosci.bsky.social

like we showed in humans, rats, and mice previously, claustrum has widespread connectivity to the cortex, especially prefrontal, cingulate, and posterior parietal

Stop by our booth and say hi. Learn what this $24M initiative has been up to. Booth shared with our friends at @westernuresearch.bsky.social where you can learn all about what @westernu.ca offers.

The first one was my flight. Got cancelled at 4am and I was rebooked on a flight 2 days later at 6am. In which world would that be useful??? It really makes no sense any more to book a flight from London to Toronto ☹️

TRIDENT is heading to Toronto to take part in AAIC for All: a special event at the AAIC that brings together anyone interested in Alzheimer's and Dementia, whether you're advancing the science, living the experience, caring for others, or simply curious to learn more. #AAIC2025 #Alzheimers

come and work with my colleague @neuroak.bsky.social This is a major collaborative initiative that combines our state of the art imaging facilities. Ideal for someone who just finished a PhD. In science 🧪-friendly 🇨🇦. these facilities are well funded for the next 3 years.

Stimulus-modulated approach to steady-state: A new paradigm for event-related fMRI. Functional MRI (fMRI) studies discard the initial volumes acquired during the approach of the magnetization to its steady-state value. Here, we leverage the higher temporal signal-to-noise ratio (tSNR...

In response to very perceptive reviewers comments we have now posted an updated preprint of our original 9.4 T SASS approach that was downloaded over 1000 times. TL;DR It works at 3 T under defined conditions. Read all about itt here…www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2024.09....

American trainees, take note. Huge kudos to the Government of 🇨🇦.

Don’t you have a home? 😅

Great to be back home 😅

😂

Fantastic collaboration with Marco Prado’s lab. Great work by Kelly Summers and Jesleen Saini.
