Brain connectivity and dynamics of functional networks

The brain processes information through different specialised areas that work closely with each other to create the whole of human functioning and experience. This means that parts of the brain can be studied as networks of connected brain regions that process and respond to information from the environment. The MR project involves investigating how the dynamics of functional brain networks change, which is linked to cognitive and emotional brain mechanisms. It involves the acquisition of experimental data using electroencephalogram (EEG) and the analysis of brain connectivity results using graph theory methods.
