I have added some visualization to the #Brain effective connectivity toolbox:
1. A directed graph + tractography visualization

2. Dynamic visualization of connected regions according to fMRI/EEG time series, but with issues:

Suthana et al. studied brain recordings from implanted electrodes in freely moving humans. They show that neural dynamics encoded actual and imagined routes similarly. @SuthanaLab @m_seeber

You will never know how much work this reel took!!

I think if I had known how hard it was when I started, I wouldn’t have started at all 😂

Scrolling through a brain MRI is like driving down the road. There are signposts & check marks along the way.

These are some of the anatomic landmarks I check as I scroll through a brain MRI

These help you to orient yourself to the anatomy and help you to remember to look for pathology in small places.

Of course, these are not all the landmarks—it’s just a start.

I want to show more signposts that I stop by when reading a brain MRI—so follow along—I think all the extra work will be worth it!!

What is or isn't a "BCI"? (Brain Computer Interface)

We argue in @natBME today that if the tech stimulates or records brain activity AND does computation, it's a BCI.

This definition would align with the popular concept of BCI, but we still need a way to discuss different types of BCI separately.

We argue that classifying BCI based on their applications e.g. "movement BCI" or "therapeutic BCI" would allow regulators, scientists, physicians, and patients to discuss specific BCI classes narrowly.

"Why does the brain need billions of neurons to process 10 bits/second? Why can we only think about one thing at a time?"

My best/most research was never ever previously proposed in any grant. Actual research outcomes are weakly correlated to proposed research. So we need less emphasis on proposed research and more on recent accomplishments…

This is amazing. Hydrogel expansion enables molecularly informed reconstruction of brain tissue at synaptic resolution with light microscopy.

Imagine regaining touch after decades without sensation—thanks to advanced neurotechnology. For Scott Imbrie, this is now reality.

A new @Nature article shares his journey using a robotic arm powered by @UChicago and our tech. Sensory feedback has reignited Scott’s connection to the world, enhancing his quality of life.

Huge thanks to the visionary researchers and to Scott, whose dedication drives this tech forward. The future of neural interfaces is about reviving the sensory richness of human experience.

A PhD position is open in my lab for those interested in studying the neuronal basis of visual perception - utilising virtual reality for mice, optogenetics, and in vivo imaging methods. See the following link for further information: https://t.co/pQeAMTCFPQ

[Sepiedeh Keshavarzi (@sepikeshavarzi.bsky.social) @SepiKeshavarzi]

📢 Opportunity Alert! We have two open PhD positions in our lab at @PDN_Cambridge starting in Autumn 2025. Exceptional candidates may have the opportunity to join earlier as RAs and receive PhD funding if scholarship applications are unsuccessful.
