    Abstract Large-scale diffusion MRI tractography remains a significant challenge. Users must orchestrate a complex sequence of instructions that requires many software packages with complex dependencies and high computational costs. We developed MaPPeRTrac, an edge-centric tractography pipeline that simplifies and accelerates this process in a wide range of high-performance computing (HPC) environments. It fully automates either probabilistic or deterministic tractography, starting from a subject's magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data, including structural and diffusion MRI images, to the edge density image (EDI) of their structural connectomes. Dependencies are containerized with Singularity (now called Apptainer) and decoupled from code to enable rapid prototyping and modification. Data derivatives are organized with the Brain Imaging Data Structure (BIDS) to ensure that they are findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable following FAIR principles. The pipeline takes full advantage of HPC resources using the Parsl parallel programming framework, resulting in the creation of connectome datasets of unprecedented size. MaPPeRTrac is publicly available and tested on commercial and scientific hardware, so it can accelerate brain connectome research for a broader user community. MaPPeRTrac is available at: https://github.com/LLNL/mappertrac .

    Abstract As the global population ages, the prevalence of cognitive decline and dementia is expected to rise, creating a significant health and economic burden. The purpose of this trial is to rigorously test, for the first time, the efficacy of yoga training as a physical activity intervention to mitigate age-related cognitive decline and impairment. We are conducting a 6-month randomized controlled trial (RCT) of exercise among 168 middle aged and older adults to compare the efficacy of yoga vs. aerobic exercise on cognitive function, brain structure and function, cardiorespiratory fitness, and circulating inflammatory and molecular markers. Using a single-blind, three arm RCT, 168 older adults ages 55-79 will be assigned to either: a Hatha yoga group, an aerobic exercise group or a stretching-toning active control group. Participants will engage in hour long group exercise 3x/week for 6-months. A comprehensive neurocognitive test battery, brain imaging, cardiovascular fitness test, and a blood draw will take place at baseline; end of the 6-month intervention, and at 12-month follow-up. Our primary outcomes of interest are brain regions, such as hippocampal volume and prefrontal cortex, and cognitive functions, such as episodic memory, working memory and executive functions, that are typically affected by aging and Alzheimer's disease. Not only will this RCT test whether yoga is a means to mitigate age-related cognitive decline, but it may also offer an alternative to aerobic exercise, which could be particularly appealing to older adults with compromised physical functioning.
