Tried to take advantage of April Fools' Day and draw more attention to my otherwise unspectacular poster. Not sure it worked. Some people genuinely congratulated me. And when I apologised for the joke, they laughed and congratulated me on a good joke. @ismrm.bsky.social #Annapolis ☺️

Happy to have contributed to this multi-site MRS study led by @drkatdyke.bsky.social! We found a minimal impact of the menstrual cycle on GABA and GSH measures. The menstrual cycle should not justify excluding women from MRS research. 👉 doi.org/10.1016/j.jn...

Mandatory listening. Peter has a knack for these interviews. And this dropped just a week after Seiji turned 91.
Dr. Seiji Ogawa discovered and coined "Blood Oxygenation Level Dependent" BOLD contrast - used in almost all fMRI today. It was my great honor to interview him over two days on the very beginnings of fMRI, and so much more. www.youtube.com/watch?v=6gBK...

Didn't know about this, not only intellectual but also genetic link between George Boole and Geoffrey E. Hinton. Simon Peyton Jones gave an amazing talk at #DarwinCollege yesterday. Great content, engaging delivery, and he spoke so fast I couldn’t zone out like I often do during talks🙂

Haha, the authors didn't even bother to delete that always-so-positive ChatGPT start of response: "Certainly, here is a possible introduction for your topic"! 😂
