I am Neurosynth! I come to wreak great vengeance on your neuroimaging research! Or to help you visualize and interpret your data a bit better. I forget which.

A few years late to the party, but @neurosynth now features a secure connection. This means I'm slightly less likely to steal your usage data than I was before.

Intensive work has begun on Neurosynth v2 (or is it v3?), in collaboration with @talyarkoni @russpoldrack @jbpoline @ten_photos @phyzang and others. This will be a radical overhaul of the framework that brings flexible image-based meta-analyses to a browser near you soon (2020?).

Note: if you want a full set of (several thousand) meta-analysis maps, please do NOT hammer our API repeatedly; you can achieve your goal much more easily via a few lines of Python code (for examples, see .

People sometimes ask if there's a way to download unthresholded meta-analysis maps. There isn't via the front-end, but you can grab them directly from the API. For example:

uh, I'm basically already perfect. but if you want to hang out in Austin for a few years and gaze upon my lovely visage, I guess I'll allow it.

most of the work in this release went into overhauling the backend and properly containerizing the whole codebase--which will make future updates much easier (and hopefully more frequent). stay tuned! 7/7.

otherwise, there are lots of other minor bug fixes and minor improvements you almost certainly won't notice. 6/.

the "custom analysis" functionality has been disabled for now. see for an explanation. the short of it is: we wrote buggy code, and some of you have been very naughty. 5/.

the "forward inference" and "reverse inference" maps have been replaced with "uniformity test" and "association test" maps. same maps, different names. see the FAQ for an explanation (. 4/.

we've also added new topic-based maps to reflect the new database--while also keeping the old ones around. see 3/.

we've culled the list of terms to include only functional and anatomical terms. this should make it easier to find meaningful maps. 2/.
