Systematic reviews can very quickly become outdated. Living systematic reviews (LSRs)—which continuously integrate new evidence—offer a solution, but their adoption has been limited to date.

In our new preprint, we suggest two approaches that can help facilitate LSR uptake osf.io/preprints/ps...

If a lecturer wheels in an overhead projector with transparent sheets and markers, you’re about to witness either the best or worst lecture of your life. Nothing in between.
At this point I would prefer to see handwritten presentations with drawings.

Connectome caricatures remove large-amplitude coactivation patterns in resting-state fMRI to emphasize individual differences

Connectome caricatures remove large-amplitude coactivation patterns in resting-state fMRI to emphasize individual differences - Nature Neuroscience
Dominant coactivation patterns are primarily studied in resting-state fMRI. Here, the authors study the rest of the signal, which reveals ‘caricatured’ connectomes with improved behavioral prediction.

Vulnerability to memory decline in aging revealed by a mega-analysis of structural brain change - Nature Communications
Across 13 longitudinal studies (3,737 adults), the authors show that brain atrophy parallels memory loss, with a stronger coupling in later life. APOE ε4 increases decline, yet genetic risk does not m...
