Wed, 26 Aug 2026 20:17:33 +0000 https://www.buzzsprout.com/2024695/episodes/17770930-fetal-infant-and-toddler-neuroimaging-with-drs-tomoki-arichi-and-courtney-filippi.mp3 In this episode, we chat about the exciting growth of fetal, infant, and toddler neuroimaging and their active group, FIT'NG. We're joined by two leaders in the field, Dr. Tomoki Arichi and Dr. Courtney Filippi, who explain to us the unique research questions and methodologies in FIT neuroimaging. Along the way, we discuss differences between neuroimaging in other developmental stages, environment vs. genetics, the impact of FIT'NG, and much more.  Reach out to our host: Matt Mattoni (matt.mattoni@temple.edu) Connect with us on social media!

We highlight two exciting recent projects, including the Reproducible Brain Charts database and a foundational study on white matter development. Along the way, we chat about harmonizing multiple datasets, testing in multiple datasets for generalizations, replicability, practical challenges, and more.

We explore how strength-based perspectives highlight individuals' resilience and adaptivity in the face of structural inequities, and the ways we can incorporate strength-based approaches in our work. Gavkhar is joined by wonderful guests who have done and are continuing to do impactful work in advancing strength-based research in our field -- Drs. Divyangana Rakesh, Monica Ellwood-Lowe, and Meriah DeJoseph.

Often attended by members of the Flux community, Neurohackademy is known for its fun and inclusive approach! We are joined by three graduate student participants from last year's program (Rohini Kumar, Dominique Lopiccolo, and Melissa Hansen) and Neurohackademy instructors Dr. Ariel Rokem and Dr. Noah Benson.  Visit our Buzzsprout for other episodes. https://sensitiveperiods.buzzsprout.com For a full transcript, visit: https://bit.ly/FluxSPS3EBonus Episode links Information about Neurohackademy: https://neurohackademy.org/ Link to apply to Neurohackademy 2025: https://neurohackademy.org/apply Connect with our guests: UW eScience Institute: @uwescience.bsky.social, @uwescience on instagram Noah Benson: @noahbenson on GitHub Melissa Hansen: @melissamjhansen on X, @melissamhansen...

Yet, we receive little training to know how to do this.  In this episode, we hear from Dr. Daniela Schiller and Dr. Bradley Voytek about their journeys through science communication, which include creating a graduate course teaching SciComm and writing a popular neuroscience book. Along the way, we touch on benefits for your own science, starting small, pursuing passions, and more.

Dr. Pfeifer is incredibly deserving of this award and gratiously provided her time to discuss her career development, advice to trainees, balancing life and work, and much more. As always, she was very reflective and insightful, and we hope you enjoy the conversation. Many thanks as well to Dr. Keller for hosting this episode! If you would like to host an episode yourself, please reach out. This is a great opportunity for researchers at varying career stages to discuss topics you care deeply about and improve your science communication skills.

Children and adolescents in Africa, Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America comprise a large majority of the world's population. Yet their data experiences and perspectives are marginalized in developmental research, including in developmental cognitive neuroscience. In this episode, we'll chat about developmental science involving people of the global majority and how trainees might play a role in the future of this work. We're joined by amazing guests Drs.

Community-engaged research seeks to bring those families to the table to learn from their expertise and lived-experiences. To learn more about how developmental cognitive neuroscientists are doing this work, we are joined by Drs. Arianna Gard & Kalina Michalska. We discuss the importance of community-engaged research, how to get started, and how this might look at different career stages.

To think about how trainees in developmental cognitive neuroscience can best engage in preregistrations, we're joined by a renowned expert Dr. Russell Poldrack. We discuss general purposes of preregistrations, do's and don'ts, how to address common mistakes, and more!
