Does ultrasound impact the human brain? Our latest study shows that it can, up to one hour after sonication, providing evidence of early phase neuroplasticity. 🧠 nature.com/articles/s41467-0… with @sitiny0, T White, @ellymmartin, @cjstagg, @LennartVerhagen, S Hall, @PlymUni

Curious about TUS-mediated early phase neuroplasticity 🧠? Our short review covers all papers in primates showing TUS effects outlasting the sonication period, and a discussion on its potential for therapeutic applications psyarxiv.com/grakn/ with @sitiny0 , and @NadegeBault

Need a skull estimate for your transcranial acoustic simulations? Try out our MR to pCT toolbox: github.com/sitiny/mr-to-pct. It uses deep learning to transform your anatomical MRI scan into a CT scan.

Our paper on brain atlases and segmentation is #61 of the top 100 downloaded neuroscience papers for Scientific Reports in 2020 (out of >1750 articles). Ten of the downloads might have been me, but who’s counting :D You too can download it here: nature.com/articles/s41598-0…

McGinnity et al. found that individuals with temporal lobe epilepsy, but normal structural imaging had reduced memory performance and bilaterally higher temporal lobe α5, but lower α1/2/3 in the ipsilateral hippocampus. bit.ly/3rQchbI @Hammers_Alexand @colm_j_m

Are you working with #brain #FDG #PETCT and require data from healthy controls? The #CERMEP database is now available for research, see Inés Mérida's recent #bioRxiv paper: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/… Some highlights: /2

Our new paper shows network changes related to the EEG alpha rhythm as potential #endophenotypes for temporal lobe #epilepsy onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/… #neuroimaging #EEG #EEGfMRI @KingsIoPPN @kingshealth @KingsImaging
Ever wondered about which #brainatlases and which #MRI segmentation method to use... for healthy controls, for patients with #epilepsy, for patients with #Alzheimer disease? Check out @sitiny0's latest work: go.nature.com/3bS6B9Y @KingsImaging @ImagingCDT @MedTechWest @LivUni

Yup, sums it up... @Se_Railway train cancelled again, delayed my journey by almost an hour AND cost me an extra £1.80
