NII Methods (journal club): NeuroQuery, comprehensive meta-analysis of human brain mapping

Andy Jahn

Aug 31, 2023

We will discuss this paper on Neuroquery, a relatively new web-based meta-analysis tool: https://elifesciences.org/articles/53385.pdf. This is different from Neurosynth in that it generates meta-analysis maps using predictive modeling from the string of text provided at the prompt, instead of performing inferential statistics to calculate the overlap of activation from different studies. This allows the user to generate predictive maps for more nuanced cognitive processes - especially for clinical populations which may be underrepresented in the literature compared to controls - and can be useful in generating predictions about where the activity will be for one's own study, and for creating ROIs.
