- Reposted by Andrew QuinnOver the years, I have written a few Jupyter/Rmd/Matlab notebooks that attempt to teach some statistical concepts, particularly in neuroimaging. You can find them here: www.mrc-cbu.cam.ac.uk/people/rik.h..., though I will say a bit more about each one in a number of posts over next few days.

- Reposted by Andrew QuinnHurrah! New paper out doi.org/10.1093/brai...! We show that sensorimotor network dynamics are altered in Parkinson’s disease and highlight the importance of looking at motor cortical activity within the broader brain network context to better understand pathophysiological changes underlying PD.
- Reposted by Andrew Quinn📢 NEW RESEARCH The brain’s networks activate in structured cycles. Led by @matsvanes.bsky.social, a team analysed MEG data from 800+ people. The strength & speed of the cycles was influenced by genetics & associated with factors such as age. www.psych.ox.ac.uk/news/brain20... in @nature.com Neuro
- Reposted by Andrew QuinnNew paper using M/EEG to look at attractive and repulsive serial dependence in working memory, led by the excellent Jiangang Shan, with Jasper Hajonides.
- In #memories, when does bias towards or away from a stimulus arise? New research shows that attractive serial dependence emerges during #decision-making, while repulsive biases originate during early sensory encoding. 🧪 plos.io/3JSztEg
