 niversity\, Canada\n\n\nAbstract: The hippocampus (or archicortex) has a c
 omplex folded laminar structure that can be fully appreciated in the multi
 planar views afforded by 3D BigBrain and other ultra high-resolution datas
 ets. Here\, we look at how analysis of the hippocampus and hippocampal sub
 fields can be performed using the same principles as surface-based analysi
 s of the neocortex and neocortical parcels. That is\, at high resolution t
 he various folds or ‘digitations' within the hippocampus resemble neocorti
 cal gyrifications and by carefully fitting a surface to these folds\, we o
 pen a new door to cortical mapping within the hippocampus. Results from th
 is strategy are applied to 3D BigBrain\, structural MRI\, and resting stat
 e fMRI and can be summarized by two organizational axes: from anterior-pos
 terior the hippocampus differs in connectivity but remains highly structur
 ally consistent. In perpendicular\, 'proximal-distal' microstructure struc
 ture differs greatly between the classically described hippocampal subfiel
 ds. The methods employed here are openly available as a fully automated BI
 DS software application and current work is exploring the use of this tool
  in epilepsy and other histology microstructural mapping endeavours.\n\nBi
 o: I did my BSc in Neuroscience at Carleton University in Ottawa\, Ontario
 . I then did an MSc in Psychology at Western University in London\, Ontari
 o\, followed by my PhD there as well in Neuroscience under the supervision
  of Dr. Stefan Kohler and Dr. Ali Khan. I'm now a postdoc at The Neuro\, M
 cGill University\, working with Dr. Boris Bernhardt and Dr. Alan Evans on 
 the topic of 3D hippocampal neuroanatomy\, functional connectivity\, and c
 omputational modelling. \n\n\nThe Feindel Virtual Brain and Mind (VBM) Sem
 inar Series will advance the vision of Dr. William Feindel (1918–2014)\, F
 ormer Director of the Neuro (1972–1984)\, to constantly bridge the clinica
 l and research realms. The talks will highlight the latest advances and di
 scoveries in neuropsychology\, cognitive neuroscience\, and neuroimaging.
 \n\nSpeakers will include scientists from across The Neuro\, as well as co
 lleagues and collaborators locally and from around the world. The series i
 s intended to provide a virtual forum for scientists and trainees to conti
 nue to foster interdisciplinary exchanges on the mechanisms\, diagnosis an
 d treatment of brain and cognitive disorders.\n\n \n\n \n
