SUMMARY:Brain network dynamics in neurodevelopment - Lucy Chai (University

DESCRIPTION:Modelling the brain as a time-varying network of interacting p
 arts has enabled us to study how mental processes are not solely determine
 d by the activity within individual brain regions\, but also by cooperatio
 ns between different brain regions. This data-heavy and graph-based approa
 ch intersects the field of neuroscience with ideas in physics and computer
  science. I will describe a computational approach to decomposing a dynami
 c brain network into smaller subparts\, a process which reveals groups of 
 closely interacting regions in the brain that govern cognitive processes. 
 This approach allows us to study how these neural subsystems change in act
 ivity over a few minutes and evolve over a decade of adolescent developmen
 t.\n
