Did you ever wonder where the concrete in a sidewalk, the asphalt in a highway, the brick in a building, or the glass in a window come from? All are derivatives of rocks and sediments, processed in ways that allow the cities of modern society to exist. But use of these materials comes at a cost to the environment, and supplies of some are not sustainable.
Did you ever wonder where the concrete in a sidewalk, the asphalt in a highway, the brick in a building, or the glass in a window come from? Join Emeritus Prof. Stephen Marshak to learn more about "Building Stuff" in Part 1 of iSEE's three-part lecture series on "Where Stuff Comes From."

Connectome-based predictive modeling is powerful approach to model individual differences in phenotypes using fMRI data. One limitation of this approach is that models are complex, making it challenging to target these models with interventions. Here, I will discuss our recent work in creating these models and developing potential approaches to target them.
