Combining data to study lifespan brain aging is tempting: more data and wider age range! But mixing data across scanners/protocols without proper harmonization can bias age effects, including studies using high-quality HCP data. Imaging Neuroscience🔔doi.org/10.1162/IMAG.a.1338

Humans live many more years than mice, but our brain networks are aging much faster. Brain network decline follows a common trajectory across mouse and human adulthood, with features of network organization linked to more rapid decline. www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

The first part of my PhD research is out now in PNAS! See the thread below and stay tuned for my dissertation work, which builds on this cross-species model of brain network aging
