There is going to be an exiting workshop on advanced fMRI end of October in Erice, Sicily (Italy).

The agenda looks just at great as the location.

Häkkinen et al., investigated how to push layer-fMRI VASO at the next-Gen 7T (Feinbergatron) 7T scanner for layer-specific circuitry mapping. The fast gradients reveal temporal dynamics and connectivity with the cortex.

Two exciting new manuscripts on layer-fMRI VASO in the Hippocampus:

Ahmadi et al. focuses on the biophysical challenges and how to account for them. They show the feasibility of laminar specific VASO- disseminated across multiple clinical 7T scanners.

This thread reminds me on a satirical Blog post on this issue.

Maybe this one fits best here on the topic of bing noisy.

Fully agree. There was a slide on one of the layer-fMRI educationals at OHBM trying to get an overview of the layer field.
Attention (or what people call it to be) seems to be the least reproducible effect in the field.

New layer-fMRI preprint looking at laminar response differences of across (very) early development in newborns.
Exciting new directions in the field.

This is a nice new study showing the mechanisms why CBV fMRI is so specific to cortical layers:
The somatostatin neurons are driving the hemodynamic response at fMRI-typical time scales.
