Science and art have been intertwined for centuries, both representing means for humans to represent, communicate and interpret our external and internal worlds. Our collective effort to gather and organize knowledge about the brain blends well with a wide array of human creative activities, from visual and performing arts to interactive media. It thus comes as no surprise that the Organization for Human Brain Mapping has a Special Interest Group (SIG) dedicated to providing a platform for (neuro)sci-art: the BrainArt SIG.Here, after properly introducing all the main characters, we follow the development of this captivating script: from its grassroots prelude within the Neuro Bureau to its recent virtual instantiations. In particular, we highlight our three latest Exhibitions (Ars Cerebri, 2019; Neurodiversity, 2020; BigData & me, 2021) and the associated Competitions, not forgetting the scientific visualization sessions that have contributed to the making of brainart a distinguishing feature of the OHBM annual meeting.

AbstractOur recent findings show that functional organizations evolve spatially over time, highlighting the importance of considering within-subject spatial variations and dynamic functional parcellations in brain functional analyses. Meanwhile, a considerable level of multi-functionality suggests the need for overlapping brain parcellations. In this work, we used ultra-high-order ICA to identify fine overlapping functional dynamic parcellations of the brain. The preliminary result of this work was presented at the organization for human brain mapping workshop (OHBM 2019)1.

The inaugural meeting of a Special Interest Group for Neuroscience in Psychiatry was held at the meeting of the College in Glasgow in 1995, chaired by Professor Stuart Checkley.The following statement has been prepared for the group to announce its existence and stimulate discussion of its aims. The mission of the group will be to promote the application of neuroscience to the core problems of aetiology and treatment in psychiatry. The term neuroscience encapsulates those aspects of anatomy, physiology, pharmacology, genetics and psychology which contribute mutually to an improved understanding of how the brain functions in health and disease.
