Sulcal interruptions in the left posterior OTS in kindergarten longitudinally predict reading skills at age 8, more so than benchmark behavioral and familial predictors of reading!

Some of us have been out of school for a while and may have forgotten our American history.

Protesting injustice and expressing our opinions is part of our American tradition and what makes this, in fact, a free country. That’s what the Constitution is all about.

[Dr. Glaucomflecken @DGlaucomflecken]

Remember, pepper spray is oil based. If you get sprayed DO NOT rub your eyes. Immediately blink as much as you can to wash out some of the oil with your own tears. Then, wash your eyes with baby shampoo or dilute dishwashing soap and rinse copiously. Water alone won't do much. Also, take out your contacts.

Here's our in-depth take on brain-wide association studies (with a 134-page supplement!): https://t.co/cQ9I7To78s

Led by @Leon_Oo1 @csabaorban, there are a few twists, so do read till the end! Our previous study ...

Yesterday, @JCI_insight pubbed our study examining MD-PhD program acceptance & how it varies by demographics & research experience.

1st-gen, Black or reapplying applicants were less likely to be accepted, regardless of research experience & publications.

Introducing the Action-Mode Network – AMN. Better late than never! 17 years ago, we clumsily called this the Cingulo-opercular Network (CON) based on its anatomy (we weren’t exactly sure what it does). Now we’ve finally got the evidence to give it the functional name it deserves: the Action-mode Network (AMN). Find our arguments here: https://t.co/z8290fmmVB with the peerless Marc Raichle and the brilliant @gordonneuro. 🧵 ↓

In a major advance, Bruce Fischl and colleagues report a comprehensive cellular atlas of Broca’s area. Ultimately, the methods developed for the study could help create 3D models of an entire human brain. https://t.co/fwSUxxfqOt @FreeSurferMRI @MGH_RI @ScienceAdvances
