Happy to share a short but super cool video that gives a quick overview of our Nature paper on the somato-cognitive action of netwokr in Parkinson's disease

This is a really fun story - thanks to @thetransmitter.bsky.social for telling it so well!
When a brain researcher solved a logistical problem by going rogue, the idea proved remarkably infectious.

Very happy to see this last thesis paper in press @natcomms.nature.com! We combine intracranial EEG with multimodal MRI to study how interregional similarity in neurophysiology relates to different network scales ⚡ 🧠

This paper had a pretty shocking headline result (40% of voxels!), so I dug into it, and I think it is wrong. Essentially: they compare two noisy measures and find that about 40% of voxels have different sign between the two. I think this is just noise!
Would love to hear expert views on this paper. It appears to show that the operationalization of brain activity the field has relied on for 3 decades—the BOLD response—is not actually a sensible measure of brain activity.

BOLD signal changes can oppose oxygen metabolism across the human cortex - Nature Neuroscience
Using quantitative brain imaging, the authors show opposite fMRI BOLD signal to metabolic activity due to variable oxygen extraction across the human cortex. This questions the canonical interpretatio...

New paper🥳
🧠 In TLE, brain changes go beyond the temporal lobe & beyond normal aging.
Our ENIGMA study (769 patients, 18 sites) found widespread gray & white matter decline, especially after 55. By Judy Chen and a terrific intl' team
Time for earlier diagnosis & deeper research
