CCN Colloquium: "Gaining Precision: studying individuals to provide new insights into human brain networks and their role in control"

Speaker
Caterina Gratton, Ph.D. (University of Illinois)
Different regions of the brain interact with one another through large-scale networks. These network interactions are important to many aspects of cognition, including our ability to control our thoughts and actions in the service of goals. In my lab, we study large-scale network organization in humans and the principles by which it can vary -- and how these variations contribute to control functions and their breakdown. In the presentation, I will review a sampling of recent studies from our lab investigating forms of variation in large-scale networks within and across people. I will then discuss how these variations influence our studies of control.
