Larger sample sizes needed to increase reproducibility in neuroscience studies
June 8, 2018 /0 Comments/in Latest News /by adminCHAMPAIGN, Ill. — Small sample sizes in studies using functional MRI to investigate brain connectivity and function are common in neuroscience, despite years of warnings that such studies likely lack sufficient statistical power. A new analysis reveals that task-based fMRI experiments involving typical sample sizes of about 30 participants are only modestly replicable. This means […]

Decision-making is shaped by individual differences in the functional brain connectome
March 16, 2018 /0 Comments/in Latest News /by adminCHAMPAIGN, Ill. — Each day brings with it a host of decisions to be made, and each person approaches those decisions differently. A new study by University of Illinois researchers found that these individual differences are associated with variation in specific brain networks – particularly those related to executive, social and perceptual processes.

Network Neuroscience Theory of Human Intelligence
December 1, 2017 in Featured, Research /by adminFlexibility is at the heart of human intelligence
November 20, 2017 /0 Comments/in Latest News /by adminCHAMPAIGN, Ill. — Centuries of study have yielded many theories about how the brain gives rise to human intelligence. Some neuroscientists think intelligence springs from a single region or neural network. Others argue that metabolism or the efficiency with which brain cells make use of essential resources are key. A new theory, published in […]
