🚨 New Preprint 🚨

Targeting intracranial electrical stimulation (ES) to network regions defined within individuals causes network-level effects

By Cyr et al.

***
Q: Can we use individualized network maps from precision fMRI to modulate a targeted network via intracranial ES?

A: Yes!

This fall, I'll be starting as an assistant professor at Brigham Young University in the Psychology Department. My lab will study memory and mental imagery and the brain networks that support them. I'm excited to engage with BYU students and collaborate with new colleagues!

New preprint!

My major project from my postdoc is finally out. Check out @rodbraga.bsky.social's summary here about my work on mental imagery and self-generated mental states, and the brain systems that support these processes!

As if there wasn’t enough to worry about…

It turns out the Salience (SAL) and Parietal Memory Networks (PMN) are the same thing!

Excited to share my most recent work with Joey Salvo and @rodbraga.bsky.social on the transmodal language network, defined using functional connectivity and multiple different tasks. Take a look!

Intrinsic functional connectivity delineates transmodal language functions

Communication involves the translation of sensory information (e.g., heard words) into abstract concepts according to abstract rules (e.g., the meaning of those words). Accordingly, using language inv...
