Preprint (not peer-reviewed): Evidence for Bias of Genetic Ancestry in Resting State Functional MRI
[not blocked]

Someone posted this on Reddit. It purports to be a study which shows that it is possible to identify a person's genetic ancestry (in other words, their "race") by observing their brain activity.

Thereby, we demonstrated that genetic ancestry is encoded in the functional connectivity pattern of the brain at rest. We hypothesize that these observed differences are a result of known ethnicity-related variations in head and brain morphology

This feels problematic, in that it gives support to the racist idea that different "races" think differently. But I don't know enough myself to believe this study or debunk it. I present it for more knowledgeable people than myself to dissect and discuss.
