- Reposted by Kevin Aquino 🧠🔑Very much forward to this @ohbmofficial.bsky.social
- Reposted by Kevin Aquino 🧠🔑Have recent changes led to uncertainty in your future scientific career? Wonder it's like in Australia? Good news! Monash's is seeking to hire talented EMCRs from other countries. Come join a wonderful community of brain mappers & modellers! www.monash.edu/research/eme...
- How is BlueSky feeling compared to how Twitter used to be for scientific discourse? For me, I feel like the crowd has moved to here and LinkedIn. To my surprise LinkedIn has become a lot better since Science Twitter's downfall... (or is it all on Twitter again?)
- I'll be there giving my angle from an Ac->Industry perspective!
- Please join us for our upcoming webinar: "Navigating Academia and Parenthood" Hosted by our incoming Chair @drerynnchristensen.bsky.social Register today: forms.gle/BmiznE6bzL3Y... Speakers: @kevinaquino.bsky.social @saadjbabdi.bsky.social Dr. Michele Veldsman Dr. Isabella Breukelaar
- Two weeks ago, I had ticked off a life time goal: to give the occasional address at the University of Sydney faculty of Science graduation. It was an incredible honour to be standing in front of these graduates - a position I was first in ~20 years ago. www.youtube.com/watch?v=VFRk...
- Reposted by Kevin Aquino 🧠🔑Info theory offers powerful measures for capturing complexity & interaction among elements of a complex system, like the brain! 🧠 Here's our new unified reference for key info-theoretic time series measures ft. 📊 visuals, ➗equations, & 💬descriptions: arxiv.org/abs/2505.13080

- Great stuff @goneill.bsky.social !
- New paper in Imaging Neuroscience by George C. O’Neill, Gareth R. Barnes, et al: Combining video telemetry and wearable MEG for naturalistic imaging doi.org/10.1162/imag...
- I have had other papers pass this mile stone, but this one is special as it was my 1st, first-author paper, and was the output from my PhD many moons ago! @drbreaky.bsky.social @mschira.bsky.social
- Reposted by Kevin Aquino 🧠🔑📣 First three years of my PhD have culminated in this work now published at PLoS Computational Biology! 🥳 We take a deep dive into all the many ways we can slice n dice fMRI dynamics to quantify biologically relevant properties 🧠🧮 doi.org/10.1371/jour...
- Happy @ohbmofficial.bsky.social submission day for all those that celebrate! 😆
- Well deserved!
- Don’t miss the new blogpost in our OHBM award winner series! Prof. Alex Fornito (@alexfornito.bsky.social), 2024 OHBM Mentor Award winner, shares his insights on mentorship, neuroscience, and more. Read it here: bit.ly/4f8Cdr9 Thanks to authors @audreycluo.bsky.social, @ashleytyrer.bsky.social
- I think this is worth a read, but it also highlights how hard it is to get the grant just right. Why can't it just be a series of dot points? So much time and money is wasted/spent in getting the prose and phrasing right.

- Interesting article, for me the controversy is just that dynamic FC is noisier than FC (which has its own problems) and possibly more susceptible to preprocessing. We had a look at this in our study www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... 1/2

- One of my favourite things to do to my kids is to extend the “high 5” to “high foot”, I have added this greeting to their friends and they always loose it when I do it 😅

- I joined up a while ago, but I feel like it's time to start posting on here! I still have presence on the other sites (twitter, Mastodon, threads) but this is starting to feel like the real successor...
