Paper Highlight! www.proquest.com/docview/3351... One of the founding principles of Neurosynth Compose was to help trainees. Grace Robertson's exploration of the neural basis for sign language for her master's thesis is testiment to that.

Let's talk about neuroimaging meta-analyses!

Neurosynth @neurosynth.bsky.social · 01/09/2026

NiMARE is releasing v0.21.0, you will notice significant improvements supporting Image Based Meta-Analyses; which we are also making available on neurosynth compose! release notes: github.com/neurostuff/N... Also check out coordinate based meta regression; a taste of what's to come.

Document the label_threshold parameter in get_studies_by_label by lobennett · Pull Request #1084 · neurostuff/NiMARE

The label_threshold parameter of Dataset.get_studies_by_label was documented only as "Default is 0.5.", which is both wrong (the default is 0.001) and unexplained. This rewrites the entry...

Decoding brain images based on a large corpus of data is as close to reverse inference as some of us will get. We did an interview about decoding, highlighting some of our work and our friends at UCSD: faculti.net/how-ai-maps-...

Exciting update! You can run Image Based Meta-Analyses (IBMA) on our platform 🚀 We've known for ~TWO decades that images are better than coordinates, but data has never been shared/organized properly to make that an accessible reality. We did it, enjoy: compose.neurosynth.org

We're suffering from success, our hard drive filled up from all the meta-analyses being run. If you can only view the results on neurovault or if you got a weird error today, that's likely why. Thankfully we have some easy fixes! github.com/neurostuff/n... Keep on meta-analyzing! #meta-analysis

Playing around with neurovlm (temporary url: neurostore.xyz/neurovlm) This will likely become the decoder for neurosynth compose, and effectively replace the functionality of the original neurosynth's decoder. Read the preprint for details: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... Collaborations!

Sometimes it's the little things. Renamed "uncategoried" to "unreviewed" during extraction. This change was made because of user feedback, so if you notice something that you think could be more clear/easier, let us know! #neuroscience #openscience #metaanalysis

A systematic meta-analysis is hard work—and curation is often the hardest part. Y'all know this better than anyone, and we want to make it easier. What’s one specific piece of information you consistently had to find or extract from every paper? Tell us about it: tally.so/r/QKVbQG #neuroscience
