China launches ambitious collaboration to map primate brains—including ours 25-year plan will tap brain-mapping prowess in two dozen countries to visualize the organ in unprecedented detail

Set to run for 25 years, the effort will produce multiomic maps not just for monkeys but for developing, adult, aging, and diseased human brains from diverse populations. https://scim.ag/4o44CDP

I think it is very important to talk more about the deep problems of functional connectivity,

It’s a new NIH policy, I think applies to all NIH repos.

Deleting data or stopping its collection will erase years of valuable brain research An explosion in open-neuroscience datasets has created a new generation of researchers with expertise in data science. But new federal restrictions in the United States put their research programs in…

An explosion in open-neuroscience datasets has created a new generation of researchers with expertise in data science. But new restrictions put our research programs in jeopardy, writes Elvisha Dhamala @elvisha.bsky.social.

With boost to NIH budget, Senate panel rejects Trump’s plan to slash agency Republicans on spending committee push back against proposed reorganization and overhead cuts

The National Institutes of Health’s budget, and structure, would be preserved under a Senate bill for the 2026 fiscal year.

I'm so proud to see this great paper finally published in @nature.com!

Agree, very well deserved @fmrib-steve.bsky.social !Congratulations🎉🎉🎉

When I first started working with resting state fMRI as a postdoc, there was a lot of skepticism about what we could learn from it. 20 years later, it's hard to imagine where the field of neuroscience would be without it. Here's a summary 🧠 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

A network correspondence toolbox for quantitative evaluation of novel neuroimaging results - Nature Communications Here, the authors present the Network Correspondence Toolbox, which enables researchers to examine and report spatial correspondence between their neuroimaging results and widely used brain atlases.

It's finally here! Use the Network Correspondence Toolbox to help contextualize your neuroimaging findings 🧠

The first new feature is that users can explore how different N & T leads to different accuracy, e.g., N=1000 & T=30min => 81% max accuracy. 🧵

Last month, I desperately needed a review comparing all the different functional networks proposed over the last 20 years. While collecting literature to start putting one together, I found that @lucinauddin.bsky.social and WHATNET have already covered it with doi.org/10.1162/netn.... Thanks!

We find that ants brain extraction works really well with, e.g. aging brains and other non young healthy adult applications.

Happy to be here! Can’t wait to wind down on the other place. Now, who can tell me if there is another auto manufacturer who has a “doggie mode” besides Tesla? Asking for a friend whose lease is up soon.
