Truly heroic work by the stellar @cieslakmatt.bsky.social + the HBCD dMRI working group team. Refactored QSIPrep + QSIRecon is the result of nearly 3y of concerted development + testing. It will be a total workhorse for HBCD -- and almost any other dMRI scan. Check it out for your data!!!

What makes HBCD unique?
It’s not just big — it’s deep:
• Prenatal & infant brain imaging (MRI, EEG)
• Actigraphy (sleep/activity)
• Biospecimens
• Substance exposure, caregiver interaction, & environmental data
• Developmental assessments from 0–9 months and beyond!!
