Thank you very much, Doug, it works indeed with your command!
I am also curious about your advices to run the PCA on surface on resting
state data (I know that mri_glmfit is not designed for that, but wonder
there is a way to specify a contrast matrix and a design matrix such that
the residuals are equal to the initial signal in order to run the PCA on my
input resting state signal?).

Thank you very much,
Florence
