- Reposted by Sarang DalalHad a great time at the MEG Nord conference in Aarhus, Denmark presenting the latest work of @pandonaude.bsky.social and myself on the cerebellum in Parkinson's disease, which is more than just basal ganglia. Poster: laumollerandersen.org/poster.pdf Preprint: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... 🧠📈
- MEG Nord returns to Aarhus, Nov 26-28, inaugurating our new OPM lab! Keynotes from @olejensen.bsky.social, James Bonaiuto @danclab.bsky.social, Sophie Scott; sessions will feature both group leaders + early career researchers. Registration & abstract submission now open: cfin.au.dk/meg-nord-2025
- MEG Nord topics span perception, cognition, brain development, disorders, and quantum sensors. Abstract/reg deadline will be October 30, 2025. We expect to have a few travel grants available for early career researchers travelling from Europe who submit an abstract or are invited for a talk! 🧠📈
- 📈🧠 We're looking for brains! 🧠📈 Postdoc + PhD positions are available to help pioneer fetal MEG with optically pumped magnetometers, measuring prenatal responses to sound and light to understand how we start making sense of the world even before we're born. 🐣 Please get in touch to hear more!
- Positions can start in winter or spring and are based here at Aarhus University in Denmark. This project will be In collaboration with @larshpedersen.bsky.social and @ana-namburete.bsky.social. Many thanks to @lundbeckfonden.bsky.social & @carlsbergfondet.dk for their support!
- If you can't quite place where we are – Aarhus is Denmark's second largest city with a lovely Scandi seaside vibe. Plus, the city's landmarks appear to take inspiration from magnetometer designs. 🤓 We're lucky to have the chance to live and work here!

- So great to see so much OPM-MEG showcased at #FITNG2025! Come see my own contribution demonstrating fetal OPM-MEG with visual stimulation responses at poster P2-H-96. We plan to take this much further in the next few years, also happy to chat about the postdoc or PhD position we have available!
- 👋 FIT’NG Member Spotlight! Sarang Dalal, Ph.D. is a professor and #FITNGmember at Aarhus University in the NEMOlab. His research interests include Fetal MEG, OPM-MEG, and early visual pathways. 🧠
- Reposted by Sarang DalalDr. Margot Taylor is giving an inspiring talk about how to expand the frontiers of neuroimaging in toddlers with wearable OPM-MEG (Optically Pumped Magnetometer - Magnetoencephalography) 🧠 @sickkidsto.bsky.social #FITNG2025
- Wonderful to see fetal OPM-MEG developing nicely. Congrats to Chiara Capparini for a wonderful talk and her young investigator award! #FITNG2025
- Just now in the Methods session: Dr Chiara Capparini presented a hot topic at #FITNG2025: OPM-MEG for fetal imaging!
- Reposted by Sarang DalalLaunched in 2023, Imaging Neuroscience is now firmly established, with full indexing (PubMed, etc.) and 700 papers to date. We're very happy to announce that we are able to reduce the APC to $1400. Huge thanks to all authors, reviewers, editorial team+board, and MIT Press.

- Reposted by Sarang DalalOn this day 2y ago we announced our move away from the huge profits that NeuroImage makes for Elsevier. Things at Imaging Neuroscience have progressed fantastically thanks to the support for this move by the brain imaging community and @mitpress.bsky.social. 565 papers published already!

- Reposted by Sarang Dalalstriking to me that this interview ends with him plaintively pleading for other university leaders to speak up: "I don’t think this is all about Princeton. It’s about what’s happening in the United States. I think this would be so much stronger if many more of my fellow presidents were speaking up."
- I greatly appreciate everything that Christopher Eisgruber says in this interview, but, more than that, it's increasingly a relief to hear someone in a position of authority willing to be sane in public. #academicSky #eduSky www.nytimes.com/2025/04/09/p...
