Better late than never… Congratulations to Josh Bierbrier, a @bbme_mcgill student working on measuring uncertainty in patient-image registration for image-guided neurosurgery, for obtaining an @HBHLMcGill masters fellowship in July this year.
Congratulations to Daniel DiGiovanni, @IPNMcGill PhD student in the NIST lab on receiving the well-deserved Harold and Audrey Fisher Brain Tumour Award from the Faculty of Medicine @McGillU for his research on brain connectivity and brain tumours.
Looking for stereotaxic registration templates for FTD and its variants? Great work by the team of @anitamanera @vfonov @DadarMahsa and @sducharme66 to generate the MNI-FTD templates with paper at https://rdcu.be/cv0dN and templates at http://nist.mni.mcgill.ca/mni-ftd-templates/
MNI-FTD templates, unbiased average templates of frontotemporal dementia variants https://rdcu.be/cv0dN @anitamanera @vfonov @sducharme66 @dlouiscollins @AlzCanada
Excellent short discussion by Curt Rice about the added degree of difficulty of working from home during the pandemic for women. Everyone, especially those in management positions, should be aware of this, and be as supportive as possible.
Here’s a 5-minute speech from me last spring about why the pandemic is affecting women differently than men, also in academia, and one little think we might do about it. I still stand for this. And I bet some @TEDx would, too. https://youtu.be/3Z6B1gam60c
