Emerging Frontiers of Neuroengineering: A Network Science of Brain Connectivity
Danielle S. Bassett, Ankit N. Khambhati, Scott T. Grafton
Neuroengineering is faced with unique challenges in repairing or replacing complex neural systems that are composed of many interacting parts. These interactions form intricate pat…
Embedding of biological distribution networks with differing environmental constraints
Lia Papadopoulos, Pablo Blinder, Henrik Ronellenfitsch +4
Distribution networks -- from vasculature to urban transportation systems -- are prevalent in both the natural and consumer worlds. These systems are intrinsically physical in comp…
Functional Hypergraph Uncovers Novel Covariant Structures over Neurodevelopment
Shi Gu, Muzhi Yang, John D. Medaglia +4
Brain development during adolescence is marked by substantial changes in brain structure and function, leading to a stable network topology in adulthood. However, most prior work h…
Structure, Function, and Control of the Musculoskeletal Network
Andrew C. Murphy, Sarah F. Muldoon, David Baker +4
The human body is a complex organism whose gross mechanical properties are enabled by an interconnected musculoskeletal network controlled by the nervous system. The nature of musc…
Functional Alignment with Anatomical Networks is Associated with Cognitive Flexibility
John D. Medaglia, Weiyu Huang, Elisabeth A. Karuza +3
Cognitive flexibility describes the human ability to switch between modes of mental function to achieve goals. Mental switching is accompanied by transient changes in brain activit…
Explicitly Linking Regional Activation and Function Connectivity: Community Structure of Weighted Networks with Continuous Annotation
Andrew C. Murphy, Shi Gu, Ankit N. Khambhati +4
A major challenge in neuroimaging is understanding the mapping of neurophysiological dynamics onto cognitive functions. Traditionally, these maps have been constructed by examining…
Mind Control as a Guide for the Mind
John D. Medaglia, Perry Zurn, Walter Sinnott-Armstrong +1
The human brain is a complex network that supports mental function. The nascent field of network neuroscience applies tools from mathematics to neuroimaging data in the hopes of sh…
Brain Network Architecture: Implications for Human Learning
Marcelo G. Mattar, Danielle S. Bassett
Human learning is a complex phenomenon that requires adaptive processes across a range of temporal and spacial scales. While our understanding of those processes at single scales h…
The Energy Landscape Underpinning Module Dynamics in the Human Brain Connectome
Arian Ashourvan, Shi Gu, Marcelo G. Mattar +2
Human brain dynamics can be profitably viewed through the lens of statistical mechanics, where neurophysiological activity evolves around and between local attractors representing…
Small-World Brain Networks Revisited
Danielle S. Bassett, Edward T. Bullmore
It is nearly 20 years since the concept of a small-world network was first quantitatively defined, by a combination of high clustering and short path length; and about 10 years sin…
Modular Segregation of Structural Brain Networks Supports the Development of Executive Function in Youth
Graham L. Baum, Rastko Ciric, David R. Roalf +12
The human brain is organized into large-scale functional modules that have been shown to evolve in childhood and adolescence. However, it remains unknown whether structural brain n…
Benchmarking confound regression strategies for the control of motion artifact in studies of functional connectivity
Rastko Ciric, Daniel H. Wolf, Jonathan D. Power +11
Since initial reports regarding the impact of motion artifact on measures of functional connectivity, there has been a proliferation of confound regression methods to limit its imp…
Multi-scale brain networks
Richard F. Betzel, Danielle S. Bassett
The network architecture of the human brain has become a feature of increasing interest to the neuroscientific community, largely because of its potential to illuminate human cogni…
Cliques and Cavities in the Human Connectome
Ann Sizemore, Chad Giusti, Ari Kahn +2
Encoding brain regions and their connections as a network of nodes and edges captures many of the possible paths along which information can be transmitted as humans process and pe…
Autaptic Connections Shift Network Excitability and Bursting
Laura Wiles, Shi Gu, Fabio Pasqualetti +2
Network architecture forms a critical constraint on neuronal function. Here we examine the role of structural autapses, when a neuron synapses onto itself, in driving network-wide…
The network architecture of value learning
Marcelo G Mattar, Sharon L Thompson-Schill, Danielle S Bassett
Value guides behavior. With knowledge of stimulus values and action consequences, behaviors that maximize expected reward can be selected. Prior work has identified several brain s…
The Energy Landscape of Neurophysiological Activity Implicit in Brain Network Structure
Shi Gu, Matthew Cieslak, Benjamin Baird +4
A critical mystery in neuroscience lies in determining how anatomical structure impacts the complex functional dynamics of human thought. How does large-scale brain circuitry const…
Optimal Trajectories of Brain State Transitions
Shi Gu, Richard F. Betzel, Matthew Cieslak +4
The complexity of neural dynamics stems in part from the complexity of the underlying anatomy. Yet how the organization of white matter architecture constrains how the brain transi…
Developmental increases in white matter network controllability support a growing diversity of brain dynamics
Evelyn Tang, Chad Giusti, Graham Baum +10
As the human brain develops, it increasingly supports coordinated control of neural activity. The mechanism by which white matter evolves to support this coordination is not well u…
Individual Differences in Dynamic Functional Brain Connectivity Across the Human Lifespan
