The genetic architecture of language functional connectivity

Using data from the UK Biobank, the world's largest general population imaging-genetics cohort, a collaboration led by a team at BAOBAB (NeuroSpin) has identified genes involved in the genetic architecture of functional language connectivity. These genes could be a priority for studying natural language....

Segmentation in neuro-oncological images

Our study evaluates the impact of adding an object detection framework into brain tumour segmentation models, especially when the models are applied to different domains....

Heritability of the language network using resting state fMRI data

Language is a singularity of the human species. Its complexity suggests that it is supplemented by an innate language capacity....

International resources we use in imaging-genetics

We use current unvaluable international resources as reference for imaging genetics. In particular we estimate reference values for heritability of image brain phenotypes....

Imaging genetics and the sulcal pits

Pits or sulcal roots are the starting marks of the sulcation process on the brain of foetus which occurs in the third semester of gestation. They have for long been assumed to be under tight genetic control, but this was never quantified. Pits are still visible in adult MR images of the brain and we studied them in the Human Connectome Project twin cohort....

Network regularization in imaging-genetics

Structural MRI is combined with genetic data while using prior knowledge of interactions between genes. A Canonical Correlation Analysis (CCA) approach endowed with graph regularization is used....
