MacaSurfer: unified surface-volume mapping of the macaque brain across the lifespan

MacaSurfer provides a unified framework for automated surface-volume mapping of the macaque brain across age and sites, showing high consistency and robustness.

Aberrant cortical subcortical somatosensory network organization is associated with impaired tactile-motion perception in akinetic-rigid Parkinson's disease

The paper investigates tactile-motion perception deficits in Parkinson's disease by analyzing functional MRI connectivity and finds altered sensorimotor network organization associated with impaired perception.

Converging Topographic Axes of Connectivity and Genetic Architectures Scaffold Cortical Patterning

The paper identifies genetic and connectivity gradients that organize cortical patterning along three topographic axes.

Comparative Analysis of Human-Chimpanzee Divergence in Brain Connectivity and its Genetic Correlates

The paper builds a chimpanzee brain atlas and compares connectivity patterns between humans and chimpanzees, identifying genetic correlates of connectivity divergence.

Prior-guided Individualized Thalamic Parcellation based on Local Diffusion Characteristics using Deep Learning

This paper develops a deep learning method for individualized thalamic parcellation using diffusion MRI, combining group atlas guidance with single-subject data to improve accuracy and reproducibility.

Uncovering the Genetic Profiles Underlying the Intrinsic Organization of the Human Cerebellum

The paper identifies 443 network-specific genes in the human cerebellum and links their co-expression patterns to intra-cerebellar functional connectivity, revealing gene subsets related to neurodevelopment and neurotransmission.
