Habitual lifestyle timing explains circadian timing, but daily lifestyle changes do not, in free-living humans across 2000 days

Billy C. Smith, Zeel Pansara, Rosanne H. Timmerman +11

Background: Both between- and within-subject variations in circadian timing matter for health. If lifestyle changes could be used to regulate circadian timing, they would offer acc…

Normative Modelling in Neuroimaging: A Practical Guide for Researchers

Nida Alyas, Jonathan Horsley, Bethany Little +3

Normative modelling is an increasingly common statistical technique in neuroimaging that estimates population-level benchmarks in brain structure. It enables the quantification of…

From Bedside to Desktop: A Data Protocol for Normative Intracranial EEG and Abnormality Mapping

Heather Woodhouse, Sarah J. Gascoigne, Gerard Hall +5

Normative mapping is a framework used to map population-level features of health-related variables. It is widely used in neuroscience research, but the literature lacks established…

Multimodal Modeling of Ultradian Rhythms Using the Hankel Alternative View of Koopman (HAVOK) Analysis

Emmanuel Molefi, Billy C. Smith, Christopher Thornton +2

Ultradian rhythms - quasi-rhythmic fluctuations in behavior and physiology with periods shorter than 24 hours - are observed across various organisms, including humans. Despite the…

Brain Morphology Normative modelling platform for abnormality and Centile estimation: Brain MoNoCle

Bethany Little, Nida Alyas, Alexander Surtees +7

Normative models of brain structure estimate the effects of covariates such as age and sex using large samples of healthy controls. These models can then be applied to e.g. smaller…

More variable circadian rhythms in epilepsy captured by long-term heart rate recordings from wearable sensors

Billy C. Smith, Christopher Thornton, Rachel E. Stirling +7

Objective: The circadian rhythm synchronizes physiological and behavioural patterns with the 24-hour light-dark cycle. Disruption to the circadian rhythm is linked to various healt…
