Brain Network Communication: Mechanisms and Patterns

This lecture explores the communication mechanisms in large-scale brain networks, focusing on brain network communication patterns, investigation methods, and the relationship between structural and functional connections. It delves into topics such as shortest path communication, parallel communication, and the spectrum of communication processes. The instructor discusses how brain function and behavior can be reflected through different communication models and presents findings on relay communication pathways and their implications. The lecture also covers the use of information theory to infer relay communication pathways and the specificity of parallel communication patterns to individuals.
