Emergence and plasticity of architectures underlying multi-site communication (B06)

Subject Area Human Cognitive and Systems Neuroscience
Term from 2011 to 2015
Project identifier Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 178316478
 
This project investigates functional roles of oscillatory coupling in neural network models. We investigate how changes in network structure induce changes in oscillatory couplings and in turn affect the functional interactions. We match theoretical results to structural and physiological data obtained in healthy participants and patients. This framework is used to predict functional interactions as measured by EEG based on structural connectivity (collaboration with projects C1, C2) and to model effects of interventions by tACS (A3, C1) and rTMS (B1). In sum, we directly compare experimental data with models and characterize how the altered local cortical dynamics influences effective cortical connectivity.
