1) @zachladwig.bsky.social will be available on SATURDAY PM at poster CC14
He’ll show his work using precision fMRI to identify new common network motifs in the PFC and investigate how network borders support executive function.

The intrinsic time tracker: temporal context is embedded in entorhinal and hippocampal functional connectivity patterns - Nature Communications
This study shows that hippocampal and entorhinal connectivity patterns drift over time in humans, providing a spontaneous neural signature of elapsed time that follows functional gradients and reveals network-specific contributions to temporal coding.
