Controlling extended criticality via modular connectivity

Nikita Gutjahr, Philipp Hövel, Aline Viol

Criticality has been conjectured as an integral part of neuronal network dynamics. Operating at a critical threshold requires precise parameter tuning and a corresponding mechanism…

Shannon entropy of brain functional complex networks under the influence of the psychedelic Ayahuasca

A. Viol, Fernanda Palhano-Fontes, Heloisa Onias +2

The entropic brain hypothesis holds that the key facts concerning psychedelics are partially explained in terms of increased entropy of the brain's functional connectivity. Ayahuas…
