New study says as many as 97.7% of #NFL players who died between 2016 & 2021 could have had chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), a brain disease related to repeated blows to the head. 🧪🧠🏈 www.bbc.co.uk/sport/americ...

NFL: At least one in four dead players had brain disease, says study
A new study says at least one in four ex-NFL players who died between 2016 and 2021 had a degenerative brain disease but the true figure could be much higher.

Impressive network neuroscience work by Bene Ramirez @benediktramirez.bsky.social ! This allows the field to start discussing the nuances of discrete parcellation. It's gonna have big implications for precision interventions.

In the US Pacific Northwest, I think we've added a new season between summer and fall, called "wildfire season", because everyone knows what time of year you're talking about.

This is a gutting visual. The effect is staggering already, but the losses will escalate exponentially.

I tracked every keyword in 22 years of Cosyne abstracts to map how computational neuroscience evolved — from Bayesian brains to neural manifolds to LLMs — and where it's heading next.

This is a huge finding! What does this mean for action mode network genes? Is this network more susceptible than other networks to cancer?

What if we've misunderstood how ADHD stimulants work? WashU Medicine brain imaging and child neurology teams joined forces to uncover where in the brain these drugs act — knowledge that could improve how attention disorders are treated. medicine.washu.edu/news/stimula...

A study from WashU Medicine shows for the first time that commonly prescribed drugs for ADHD do not act on the brain’s attention circuitry.

🚨 New preprint on the first infant 7T MRI project in North America! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... We showcase that by leveraging 7T for infants, we can improve data quality and thereby facilitate precision functional mapping in early development.

Is precision functional brain imaging in babies possible? YES! We show this in not one but two new preprints out of WashU and @umn-midb.bsky.social! 1️⃣: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... 2️⃣: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... 🐣👶🧠

This might be related to the feelings of joy we observed when stimulating the ventromedial PFC, which is also within the salience network: bsky.app/profile/drda...

Then we turned on his minimally invasive brain pace-maker and this happened. Thirty months later, his depression remains in full remission. lnkd.in/gb4WdZMQ lnkd.in/gFZV4zBp #Neuroscience #MentalHealthInnovation #FunctionalMRI #PrecisionMedicine #DepressionResearch #PACE #BrainStimulation

This is the future. The reality of biological #psychiatry. We listen to the patient, create a personalized map of their brain, use algorithms to disrupt stuck networks, and adapt the stimulation over time while continuing our quest to understand those networks.

When nothing worked, this did. Precision functional mapping is here for treatment-resistant depression. This is what hope looks like. 💡

"The [number of NSF trainees] supported would drop from 95,700 undergrads, grad students, and postdocs during this FY to 21,400." Not only will this eviscerate the future scientific workforce, but science will grind to a halt. Trainees are the workhorses of research. www.science.org/content/arti...
