Excited to share a new preprint that examines how adversity exposure across development is associated with subcortical-cortical structure-function coupling and youth mental health! 🧠
Thread below: 🧵⬇
Corticolimbic structure-function coupling is sensitive to childhood adversity and buffers adversity-related symptoms during development https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.64898/2025.12.22.696017v1

Ever wondered how white matter tracts actually map onto the cortical hierarchy and cognition—beyond the usual “projection vs association” labels?
Our new preprint tackles exactly that! 🧠✨ doi.org/10.64898/202...
Thread below 🧵
Anatomical White Matter Tracts Span the Cortical Hierarchy to Support Cognitive Diversity
Long-range white matter (WM) tracts support cognition by enabling communication between distant cortical regions, which are organized along a hierarchy defined by the sensorimotor-to-association (S-A)...

‼️ Excited to share a new preprint! Using a novel measure of adversity exposure (the DISTAL), we characterized links between the developmental timing of adversity, integrity of brain-wide white matter tracts, and mental health symptoms bit.ly/46e083V (1/8)
Multivariate links between the developmental timing of adversity exposure and white matter tract int...

Please encourage any psych, cog, and/or neuroscience undergrads wanting an intensive, immersive, supportive, and *paid* summer research experience to apply! WashU’s ENDURE program is world class, and my lab would be delighted to support a mentored research project 🙂
