Construction, Filtration and Dynamics of Functional Brain Networks

The large extent of our knowledge of brain functioning reaches a deeper insight into its mechanisms if seen through the lens of complex networks. Timeseries of brain activity (neurovascular and electrophysiological) have been extensively used to associate the brain functional segregation with specific behavioral outcomes. A comprehensive description of the cerebral functionality relays on the embedding and filtration of a fully connected network and on the subsequent evaluation of the supported dynamics.
In this presentation I will show the state-of-the-art of graph embedding in human neuroscience and the fundamental role of the functional topology in its emergent dynamics.
