Talk Title: Assessing reliability in measures of functional and structural brain development
Abstract: The ability to reliably measure the function and volume of brain structures is the foundation on which neural substrates of memory development can be examined. While many recent studies have evaluated the reliability of MRI measures in adults, information regarding the reliability in developing samples remains unclear. In this presentation, we will first assess the reliability of functional MRI in a developing sample (n = 24, ages 8 to 20) under a subsequent memory paradigm (Lingfei). We will then assess the reliability of hippocampal subfield volumes in two developing samples (ns = 28, ages 7 to 20) under a manual segmentation protocol (Roya).
MRI Users Workshops are monthly informal gatherings for users who are interested in getting to know each other and talking science. The workshop is open to all, and students and postdocs are particularly encouraged to attend.
Workshops typically include a short presentation of work (15-25 minutes) with an extended discussion at the end.
Workshops are typically held on the third Friday of each month at 1:00pm, in the Psychology Building, Room TBD. To receive meeting details and related MRI announcements, please complete a request form and specify that you would like to be added to the CCBBI mailing list.
