Diffusion MRI (dMRI) is a powerful tool to study white matter maturation. In our new preprint, we process and distribute a new resource of >24,000 ABCD dMRI scans using open source tools! We then evaluate how methods shape inferences about development.

🏔️ Announcing IST 2026 in the Canadian Rockies!
The 2nd annual meeting of the International Society for Tractography is happening this fall. Following Bordeaux, we’re gathering researchers, clinicians & developers pushing tractography, diffusion MRI & brain connectivity forward.
Super interesting! Are there are already any findings on aphantasia, or is this project just starting?
Sorry about that! We're on opposite ends of the time-zone spectrum.. There will be a recording to follow!

That's amazing! Also, two members of my qualifying exam committee in one sentence 😁
That's not how we pronounce it 😆
Love to see this well-deserved recognition! Chris has had an incredible impact on the practice of human brain mapping through his many contributions. And his work is also always done with incredible thoughtfulness and kindness, alongside awe-inspiring technical excellence. A real inspiration.
