submitted a new manuscript that explores fine-grained functional
connectivity in relation to cortical sulci. Sulci are a salient but
understudied feature of the human brain that are related to both
cognition (as Kevin Weiner and Silvia have shown in prior studies, in
relation to reasoning ability).

Fei Xu, Keanan Joyner, and Bunge are launching the Illuminating the Brain Consortium – a community of researchers who will be using functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) to study the neural basis of cognition in early childhood, across diverse populations, and/or in naturalistic settings.

It is designed for upper-level undergraduates and more advanced trainees, and anyone else who wants a deep dive into this burgeoning field of the brain basis of cognitive and socioemotional development from infancy through adolescence.
