Milestone ✨: the very first patient of our TRUE-GRIT study completed the first week of the combined rTMS and cognitive strategy intervention. Six more weeks to go! A small but important step in our journey to explore ways to improve cognition in glioma patients 🧠⚡️

Lab outing! We went to Beautiful Distress to see a beautiful exposition on "invisible loss" in the context of epilepsy. Still on for a few more days, highly recommend!

It was wonderful to contribute to this day with our team. We are deeply grateful for this gift that makes our work possible 🙏

Next Tuesday, Lucas Baudouin will present on his exciting multiscale work in the Glia Club Seminar series! Curious? Join at 11am EST or 5pm Amsterdam time: zoom.us/j/97388482525

New team member alert🥳 Eva Koderman will be doing her PhD on predicting cognitive decline in glioma patients undergoing resective surgery through computational modelling and machine learning🧠 Welcome Eva!

Our Lucas Baudouin will be giving his talk on "Using patient-specific multiscale imaging to elucidate the role of oligodendroglial abnormalities in cognitive impairment in glioma" today in Session 7 [location: Tuin & Waterkers].

Woohoo, here's Lucas Baudouin with the other speakers in his session 🥳. #DNM24 was a blast!

Pleased to share this article from customer partners Amsterdam UMC using #MEG to look at "the relationship between pathological brain activity and functional network connectivity in glioma patients." Read here: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38308803/

.Linda Douw was part of a roundtable discussion on brain connectivity! Read the fun conversation including some stellar other researchers in the field here (OA link works for 4 weeks): authorcite.com/view.aspx?doi=…

We are at the Cancer Center Amsterdam - Amsterdam UMC annual retreat! Right now, Marieke and Maxine Gorter are presenting their posters on our FeelFit 🚴‍♀️ and TRUE-GRIT 🧲 studies. More info on the 🚴‍♀️and 🧲on the GRIP study team website: amc.nl/web/research/t… #cancercenteramsterdam

We had our end-of-academic-year BBQ again! A happy and sad editiom, because we said goodbye to Eduarda Zampieri... 😃 Thanks for everything, and all the best!!

Ahh!!! I'll miss you guys; what a team! I hope this is a 'See you soon', and we are always one email away! ☺️ Thanks for the great journey together!

New publication online! 🚨 Using the more advanced measure of brain network resilience, we found that the brain network of PD donors was less resilient to node failure of the dorsal anterior insula, related to a global increase in α-synuclein. neurology.org/doi/10.1212/WN…

It's time to say goodbye (or see you soon) to the multinetlab and the Anatomy & Neurosciences Open Science Working Group! Thank you again for this great experience! 🥰 eduardacenteno.com/2024/08/02/goo…

New pubpeer up! We read the interesting preprint "Postoperative KPS prediction in patients with IDH wild-type glioblastoma ..." by Sasagasako and colleagues. Our thoughts: pubpeer.com/publications/8… Why we pubpeer our journal club discussions: multinetlab.com/2021/04/03/why…

Woohoo 🎉 Jantine Röttgering's PhD thesis on "Changing perspectives on fatigue in glioma" has taken physical form! And while we're at it: save the date for her PhD defense, which will take place on October 25, 1:45pm Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. More info and link to her thesis will follow!

Fun night at De Parade 🎠!

Wij zijn AAN tegen kanker! Bij de live show "Iedereen AAN tegen kanker" hoorden we prachtige én verdrietige verhalen over deze ziekte. Geweldig dat KWFKankerbestrijding op deze manier aandacht vraagt voor meer onderzoek. Hier meer informatie over de campagne: kwf.nl

MULTINET is expanding! Iza Oostra is our new research analist, and will be working with Dorien on better understanding the cognitive effects of chemotherapy through multiscale brain investigations. multinetlab.com/2024/09/04/iza…

And we've also welcomed Rachel Smith to the team this week! She will do her PhD on the same project on cognition and chemotherapy. multinetlab.com/2024/09/04/rac…
