🧠⚡️ New results from our n=178 brain stim dataset using 7T MRS and fMRI! ⚡️🧠

1. Baseline glutamate levels predict the gains from stimulation.

2. Brain stimulation modifies learning-related changes in patterns of activity.

Non-motor symptoms in MND - Great data
"It's crucial to integrate non-motor symptom management into standard ALS care. Further research is needed for tailored interventions."
More awesome work @AhmadAlKhleifat @AmmarAlChalabi

[Julien Cohen-Adad @jcohenadad]

You computed #spinalcord cross-sectional area from #MRI using @SpinalToolbox. What next?

You can now compare this value with a database of 203 adult subjects. Check out this new interactive @NeuroLibre preprint by @ValosekJan @SandBedard :👇
