YNiC seminar 26th March

Dear Users This Thursday (from 4 pm in B020) Andrew Quinn will give a talk on "Directionality and oscillatory dynamics in functional brain networks" Abstract: Electrophysiological data is rich in oscillatory activity. These rhythms exist across many time scales and are known to co-vary with brain states (such as sleep/wake) as well as many cognitive and behavioural factors. Moreover the connectivity between brain regions also shows robust spatial networks across the brain within specific frequency ranges (Brookes et al 2011, de Pasquale et al 2010, Hipp et al 2012). The present work establishes a methodology for estimating the direction of information flow within such networks which is validated on simulations before application to real MEG data. Everyone is welcome to attend and refreshments will be available after the seminar. Best wishes Rebecca -- ************************************************************************ Dr. Rebecca E.
