Child psychiatry, development, neuroimaging, and genomics. Lab Chief @ NIMH Intramural Research Program (views my own). Hopeless music nerd. Lover of cheese boards.
Recorded in 1973 (up the road in Silver Spring, MD) with this plea in the liner notes …
“In the interest of national security, please help us carry out our constitutional duty to overthrow the king”.
Beautiful, powerful, rousing music.

Polygenic and developmental profiles of autism differ by age at diagnosis - Nature
A study of several longitudinal birth cohorts and cross-sectional cohorts finds only moderate overlap in genetic variants between autism that is diagnosed earlier and that diagnosed later, so they may represent aetiologically different conditions.

Humans show reproducible sex differences in regional cortical volume but what are their morphological and mechanistic bases?
Our new preprint approaches this question by separate analysis of cortical volume, area and thickness, and examining data from rare patient cohorts 👀 🧵⬇️
