I’m excited to share that our article has been published: “Brain Topology Disruption in Early-Onset Dementia: Review of Current Findings and the Need for Network Resilience-Focused Models” (http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/brb3.70903)
In this review, we highlight several important insights:
- A summary of how early‐onset forms of dementia (including Alzheimer’s disease, frontotemporal dementia (FTD), and behavioral variant FTD) show disruption in brain network topology (both structural and functional) rather than purely focal pathology.
- Evidence that brain networks lose their optimal organisational properties (e.g., balance of segregation and integration) in early‐onset dementia, reflecting decline in network resilience. For example, previous work has shown disrupted segregation/integration in large‐scale brain networks in Alzheimer’s/MCI.
- The concept of network resilience as a key lens: rather than only asking “where damage occurs”, the paper argues we should ask “how the network topology fails to compensate, reorganise or maintain function under pathology”. This shifts the view to resilience‐focused models.
- Review of methodological findings: how graph‐theoretic metrics (clustering coefficient, global/local efficiency, modularity, assortativity, small‐worldness) are being applied to neuroimaging and electrophysiology in early dementia.
- Gaps and opportunities: the need for models that integrate network resilience, longitudinal data, multimodal connectivity (structural + functional + electrophysiological) and early‐onset cohorts; and the translational potential for biomarkers and interventions that support network integrity rather than just reduce pathology.
I believe this work contributes to bridging neuroscience, network theory, and clinical neurology, and invites discussion on how we can design interventions that strengthen brain network resilience in dementia.
Thanks to my co-authors (Hema Nawani, Sredha Sunil) and reviewers, and a huge thank you to our professor Veeky Baths for his guidance and support throughout this work.
If you’re working in cognitive neuroscience, network approaches to brain disorders, early‐onset dementia, connectomics or translational neurology, let’s collaborate to make a real impact.

Another One Bites the Dust!
Nice @thetransmitter writeup for broad audience
https://www.thetransmitter.org/methods/mistaking-a-duck-for-a-skvader-how-a-conceptual-form-of-circular-analysis-may-taint-many-neuroscience-studies/
Yet the 6 appendices alone have many bits to learn from!Benchmark models
Represent all important existing knowledge about our phenomenon of interestSpeculative models
Represent new hypothesesStrawman models
Represent weak null hypothesesCircular analyses
Almost invariably accept speculative models against strawman modelsMika Rubinov

It's incredible (to me, at least) that the community around #muxViz reached 700+ members.
MuxViz is our R-based package for the analysis of complex #multilayer #networks

”we show that LSD and psilocybin reduce control energy required for brain state transitions compared to placebo. Furthermore, across individuals, reduction in control energy correlates with more frequent state transitions and increased entropy of brain state dynamics”

Do we need to hardwire hierarchical connectivity in recurrent neural networks to achieve predictive coding (PC)?
PC is an emergent consequence of an energy efficiency principle, leading to separate subpopulations of prediction and error units.
