Subject: NIH Neuroscience Seminar Series: May 17, 2010
You are invited to attend the NIH Neuroscience Series lecture on Monday, May
17, 2010 at noon in the Lipsett Amphitheater of the NIH Clinical Center, 10
Center Drive, Bethesda, MD.
OLAF SPORNS, PH.D., Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences Programs
in Neuroscience and Cognitive Science, Indiana University, will present the
seminar on "Network neuroscience - connectivity and dynamics of the human
brain"
Nervous systems are complex networks of interconnected neural elements that
engage in spontaneous or evoked dynamics. Recent advances in the
quantitative analysis and modeling of complex networks have provided new
insights into the architecture of brain, structural and functional
connectivity its small-world topology, efficient information flow, low
wiring cost, modularity, and hubs. This talk provides an overview of this
emerging field, with an emphasis on how complex network approaches can
reveal structure/function relationships in the human brain.
