Hey everyone, I'm at #OHBM2025 in 🇦🇺. I'll present my very latest work on recognition memory providing hopefully some new insights on individual brains and what some of the canonical regions are doing. If you like come to my poster (837) or talk (Thursday 11:30) or just hit me up! 🧠🧑‍🔬

Thrilled to be in Brisbane for #OHBM2025! It’s gonna be a busy one all about ultra-high res fMRI during memory tasks: poster 838, a symposium at 9 am on Thursday and if you’re still not sick of me by then, an oral poster talk also on Thursday (not all the same, I promise!). DM me to catch up 🙂🧠🇦🇺

One of the last things that I still needed MS Office & #Windows for was presentations/posters but now that I actually tried working with LibreOffice more seriously I think there is a lot to like about the software. I was able to adapt a Windows .pptx template poster without much hassle. #linux

Reminder: don't do decoding! When you have more noise in your data (neuroimaging) than you do in your labels (face, house), encoding is better than decoding. Not to mention that encoding models make it easier to control for covariates.

Did you ever wanted to see a visualisation how two common brain 🧠 network parcellations (Yeo 7 vs. CAB NP) differ? Here is a small something I quickly cooked up because I was curious myself. #neurosky #neuro #brain #brainsky #neuroimaging Code: github.com/JAQuent/netw...
