Hi 😊! This page will now be related to the Neural Systems and Behaviour Lab. if you want to follow the BrainPark’s mission to create healthy habits, brains and communities, head to @BrainPark or follow the activities of Neuroscience and Society group should visit @NeuroethicsAU

What mechanisms shape the intricate wiring of the cortex (i.e., its connectome)? Check out our new paper out in Cell showing how geometry constrains connectome architecture: cell.com/cell/fulltext/S0092…

Interested in the principles shaping connectome architecture? Check out our latest in @CellCellPress led by @_francisnormand w/ @jchrispang, @TrangCao2016, J Cruddas, @m_gajwani, @Arshiya_San, @DrAlexHolmes, @StuartJOldham, & P Robinson. We derive a simple model using geometric eigenmodes that can capture cortical connectome topology and topography of mouse, marmoset, macaque, chimp, and human connectomes, as mapped using diffusion MRI and tract-tracing. Paper available here: sciencedirect.com/science/ar… Peep Francis' thread for more details!

Also come talk to @MarkoRuslim at poster #0403 (Monday/Tuesday) on individual-specific modelling of wave propagation along the visual hierarchy !

And in #2766 (Wed/Thurs) @epsilongreedy uses a production and spreading model to investigate the genetic and connectomic constraints on gray matter volume changes in schizophrenia!

More Wed/Thurs posters: #2128 @yinuo_shu describes how topologically complex connections support the diversity and flexibility of brain attractor dynamics #2177 @_francisnormand bridges the gap between geometric eigenmodes and functional gradients in the human cortex

Other Monday/Tuesday posters: #0425 by recent alumnus @DrAlexHolmes, on cortical geometric constraints on hierarchical sensory integration #0676 where @m_gajwani investigates the self-similarity of human brain organization across scales using fractal mathematics ❄️

What is the reproducibility of morphometric phenotypes in psychiatric disorders? Hint: reproducibility does not look great for most disorders. Poster #1729 (Wed/Thurs) @TrangCao2016 You can also checkout the preprint: medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Interested in thalamocortical connections, and automatically reconstructing them while balancing personalization and biological plausibility? Come talk to @PriscilaTLevi about our bespoke thalamocortical tractography pipeline! Poster #2176 (Wed/Thurs) @PriscilaTLevi @Arshiya_San

Checkout Neuromodes, our new brain geometry Python package for simulating functional activity, understanding differences in brain structure or organisation, null modelling and more! Poster #2027 (Wed/Thurs) github: github.com/NSBLab/neuromodes @_victorbarnes_ @izachpope @m_gajwani

Hello #OHBM2026! NSB Lab (past & present) is presenting a host of fantastic posters, talks & software over the coming few day so keep your eyes peeled 👀 and come find us @AFornito @OHBM @OHBM_Trainees Details 👇

Frustrated with DSM? Interested in @HiTOP_system as a potential alternative? Check our latest, led by J Tiego, using a bottom-up approach in a transdiagnostic twin sample evaluating the validity & heritability of the HiTOP model: osf.io/preprints/psyarxiv/m9…

First time at OHBM? Or looking to meet fellow OHBMers before the conference gets underway? Join us for a Morning Coffee and connect with other attendees. ☕ Monday, June 15 | 8:00–9:00am 📍 Loop Coffee (location in replies) Sponsored by @_TheTransmitter #OHBM2026
