Ever wonder how people's brains differ from one another?
➡️ Individual differences in 🧠 organization commonly come in 2 forms: shifts in borders & 'ectopic intrusions' far from expected locations
Now out in @NatureNeuro, led by @allydworetsky
https://t.co/HBm24wMwdc
🧵soon!

[Caterina Gratton @GrattonCaterina]

Apply by tomorrow (2/28) for full consideration 👇

[Caterina Gratton @GrattonCaterina]

I’m excited to share our new preprint – led by @hyejinjadelee & Derek Smith – where we applied precision approaches (i.e., extensive per-participant data collection) to behavioral measures of inhibitory control.

I'm looking for 1-2 post-docs or research faculty to join my lab @PsychologyFSU ☀️to work on NIH & NSF funded projects related to 🧠 precision brain networks, individual differences, and network breakdown in Parkinson's Disease.
Remote work options are negotiable. Please RT 🙏

Preprint out on the ⭐️cingulo-opercular⭐️ network,
a collab project co-led w/ @profmaitalneta + @allydworetsky
https://t.co/D5VGJ0h4jI
We take a new 👀 at 1 of our fave 🧠 systems, after addressing indiv variation
➡️ leading us to a new proposal on its subdivision & evolution

Want to study how 🧠 networks are changed during different tasks? Check out this lab paper in Cerebral Cortex:
https://t.co/5GbgcX4p1J
@alexis_porter21 shows that individual-level models are accurate, outperform cross-subject approaches, and reveal new brain state features

Excited to present at #CNS2022! Come by poster F17 on Tuesday to hear about stability & reliability of precision rsFC measurements in older adults 🧠 As a bonus, we looked at stability & reliability of segregation indices with high amts of data. Spoiler: more data is better 😉

We know that 🧠 network organization varies across people, especially in association cortex. But to what extent does this differ across the left and right hemispheres?
In a lab pre-print led by @_DCPerez_, we dive into this ❓:

A dream come true, now out @Nature w @tervoclemmensb

https://t.co/uZdmFGPWW3

I started this project before knowing my wife and kid.

Science can be a slog, this one was worth it.

Pointing towards an exciting future for brain-behavior research.

[Caterina Gratton @GrattonCaterina]

Are brain networks driven by discrete transient ‘events’ or constantly present?
In this new lab preprint led by @zladwig, we examine “events” - single moments of high BOLD cofluctuation - & how they contribute to static functional connectivity.

Check out my first, first-author paper from @DeannaJGreene 's lab in collab with @wunder_lab! We looked at adding @firmmsoftware to current gold-standard infant brain MRI protocols and found that it nearly doubled the high-quality fMRI data collected.

✨ Gratton Lab #SfN2021 #SfN21 Posters Thread ✨
Check out these 3 great 🧠 posters from Diana Perez (TUES AM), Zach Ladwig (TUES AM), and Derek Smith (THURS AM) and let us know if you have any feedback or questions!

[David Gruskin @DavidCGruskin]

Do twins have more similar patterns of brain activity during movie-watching compared to unrelated individuals? Are BOLD time courses/functional topologies heritable??

Come find out at my SFN poster (P492.04) w/ @neurofreak! Discussion: 11/9 from 9:45 AM to 10:45 AM EDT. #SfN21

[Caterina Gratton @GrattonCaterina]

Are all individual differences in 🧠 systems driven by local shifts in network boundaries? A new lab preprint led by @allydworetsky argues no ⛔️:
https://t.co/aSnBGHwH50
We find evidence that isolated "ectopic intrusions" are also common and dissociable from border shifts.

[Caterina Gratton @GrattonCaterina]

My lab @NorthwesternU is in search of a full time Research Assistant for a new project on individual differences in #brain 🧠 organization across the adult #lifespan (newly funded by an NIMH R01 supplement, yay!). Please RT 🙏

[Caterina Gratton @GrattonCaterina]

Excited to announce that a new lab paper led by @KrausBt is out now in @NeuroImage_EiC ,
https://t.co/G2JfKs0vkp
where we show that locations of individual differences show high consistency between task and rest states.
A thread ... 1/n

[Caterina Gratton @GrattonCaterina]

We have a new lab preprint (led by Derek Smith, @_DCPerez_ @alexis_porter21, @allydworetsky)
https://t.co/K1mSgAOjQT

on the importance of individualized fMRI approaches in cognitive control, esp to address specificity/multi-functionality of regions

Let us know what you think
