#fNIRS is now officially part of BIDS, a transformative initiative towards #OpenScience. Let us organize and share our #snirf datasets on @OpenNeuroOrg or your preferred platform!
@SfNIRS
I do everything possible in the terminal, but if you told me I could preview NIFTI images *in* *the* *terminal* *window* I wouldn't believe you, until this... this... my mind melting...
Announcing #neuromatch2020 free online unconference, March 30-31.
1. Confirmed speakers Yoshua Bengio, @russpoldrack, @behrenstimb, @drkjjeffery, @KordingLab.
2. Mind matching meetings with other scientists based on your research interests.

Having fun today testing out our new local head gradient coil from Brian Rutt. 3-axis, torque balanced, insertable in 20 minutes, max gradient 120 mT/m, max slew 1200 T/m/s. Now it's on one of our GE 750's but this could be really useful at 7T and upwards.
My boyfriend came to watch me present my research and at the end I asked for questions. He asked a super specific question that allowed me to reiterate the most interesting part of my research. He knew the answer. He wanted me to be able to highlight it again. What a man
Story time! Single neurons in the brain can’t be depended on for reliable information. Here are some neurons from our recent study, recorded twice in response to the same visual stimuli. Different neurons are active at different times!

Have questions about the first ever image of a black hole?
We'll have computer scientist Dr. Katie Bouman and astronomer Dr. Colin Lonsdale from the @ehtelescope project in studio this week to answer YOUR questions.
Tweet them to us w/ #BlackHolePhotoQ by 12 pm ET Thur.
NIRx got a little cred in the Wall Street Journal last week:
"This technique (fNIRS) has several advantages over fMRI: It’s faster, cheaper and more portable, so subjects’ brains can be measured... https://t.co/jxEP71dZRx
Fascinating talk by @JChrisMcKnight2 showing what can be done when biomedical engineering addresses an unmet need - in this is case waterproof, pressure resistant #fNIRS monitoring astounding changes in cerebral oxygenation and cerebral function in diving seals.
