1/11 Our new paper is out in Alzheimer’s & Dementia! 🚨 Does cortical excitation–inhibition (E/I) imbalance link amyloid pathophysiology to memory? We tested this in non-demented older adults (cognitively normal + MCI) across two independent cohorts. 🧵👇 doi.org/10.1002/alz.71891

11/11 Code: github.com/ThomasYeoLab/CBIG… And if E/I estimation is too slow for you, check out @tianchuzeng and @t___fang 's amazing work using deep neural networks to speed up biophysical model fitting: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

8/ Microscale to macroscale mechanism A biophysical model simulating the prolonged inhibitory postsynaptic currents of GABAergic anaesthetics at the microscale, reproduces 461/485 (95%) of macroscale empirical features 🤯 Shortening excitation (à la ketamine) also gets >90% ✅

The first paper from my PhD is out in @NatureNeuro! Aging and Alzheimer's disease both reshape how the brain communicates. But not in the same way: aging vs AD related alterations follow two distinct axes of brain organization Paper → nature.com/articles/s41593-0… 🧵⬇️

Just discovered this review and best practice guidelines for AI/ML for Neural Engineering. Some of the best illustrations I've seen of all the different ways cross validiation can (and should not) be done with time series data. Carlson et al (2025). doi.org/10.1088/1741-2552/ad….

🧵 Struggling to replicate a proteomics biomarker study? Our new preprint quantifies one common cause: data leakage. With NO true signal, some runs with data leakage still reached AUCs near 0.8. w/ @_JakeVogel_, Caitlin Finney, Artur Shvetcov & @_neuroproteome

The code for our paper has been released: github.com/ThomasYeoLab/CBIG…! We showed that MS-HBM can reliably estimate individual-specific rs-fMRI networks in drug-resistant epilepsy and that individual-specific language network topography can predict task-fMRI language dominance.

📣 New preprint: Multiple Nested Distributed Language Networks in the Human Brain. 📣 Brain regions specialized for language have been extensively described. But are they organized into one network, or multiple? Our new preprint provides evidence for the latter: biorxiv.org/content/10.64898…

New in @AmJPsychiatry — personally I think this is my best paper so far. Highest statistical rigor, strongest causal inference (via a series of natural experiments), and multiple clinical applications. Thanks @KJBinSTL and team tagged below. psychiatryonline.org/doi/10.…
