My second first author paper of graduate school - Sex differences in response to violence: role of salience network expansion and connectivity on depression - is now published in Translational Psychiatry!

Emotions are core to the human experience 😆😮🙂😊☹️😠😳😑. But how do they arise? Our brain-wide ⚡recordings in humans and mice reveal some answers @ScienceMagazine. A big team effort and debut paper from @Stanford's new Human Neural Circuitry program. https://t.co/FbbJIjky2c

Congrats Paula!!

The electric fields given off by TMS are super distributed: this is a great one for piecing apart the implications of that spread for individual treatment outcomes. Congrats Divya!

Breathing isn’t just for life—it’s a brain pacemaker! This excellent review reveals how each breath sends sensory waves that globally synchronize neural networks - with implications for "functional connectivity". Congrats to the authors! 👉

Seems relevant to all the white matter targets popping up in brain stim. Not just a highway anymore!

Thrilled to announce our study, “Connectional Axis of Individual Functional Variability: Patterns, Structural Correlates, and Relevance for Development and Cognition,” now published in @PNASNews

Our preprint detailing our novel approach to identifying personalized neuromodulation targets to treat severe, refractory OCD using brain mapping is now out on MedRxiv. Here, we describe our first SEEG-guided DBS case for OCD at UCSF:

Our work linking GWAS and pharmacological treatments in psychiatric disorders is now in JAMA Psychiatry https://t.co/5MYupMDS5M 🧬💊🎯 Big thanks to @bendfulcher @AFornito @BellgroveMark 🧵👇

Now out in @NatMentHealth 🥳🥳🥳 this is the 2nd study of my dissertation with Carrie Bearden, co-led with @dehughes14 💫💫 https://t.co/OQkxGdsAqT

✨New Preprint!✨ Sex differences in psychiatric disorders often show up in adolescence as disparities in prevalence, symptoms, and treatment outcomes. We aimed to better understand sex diffs in brain organization that might lead to these disparities! https://t.co/zyZXtbwlb6 🧵⬇️

Have been so so impressed by Xue's work on this. Critical paper for starting to think about how mood disorder treatment response/recovery manifests in the brain rather than case-control differences

And a quick shameless self-endorsement: I’m on the job market this year! More info here: https://t.co/dQJvN6ApmY. More brain-centric work coming out soon.

Many, many thanks to co-authors @LeonardoTozzi1, Claire Bertrand, @ArielleKeller, @warmxue, @GabrieliSusan, @HastieTrevor, @bart_larsen, @JLeikauf, and of course @LMWilliams_PhD @Stanford_PMHW. Major thank you to ABCD staff and participants as well.

The rest of the paper is essentially just showing this pattern holds across linear models, polynomials, GAMs, split-half analyses, etc. Paper is available here https://t.co/PgSjA9e3hA. As usual, all code available on github:

If your motivation for studying cognition includes its role in psychopathology, please include people with clinical symptom burdens in your study! Healthy cognition/MH relationships not only can fail to generalize; they can exhibit the opposite of what's true in clinical samples.
