Dr Margulies investigates the organization of large-scale brain networks,
primarily through the analysis of intrinsic activity as measured with
functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). He has developed approaches to
define sub regions within complex cortical areas, conducted cross-species
comparative neuroanatomical studies, and related variation in these networks
to phenotypic differences across individuals. His current research addresses
the emergence of network topography and its relationship to cortical
structure.

 

Abstract:

What determines the spatial arrangement of distinct areas of the cerebral
cortex? Insights into functional processing streams indicate that areas are
arranged stepwise, such that adjacent spatial position along the cortical
mantle represents functional gradients. Having been largely restricted to
describing processing within specific sensory modalities, how do these
principles generalize across modalities and extend to the surrounding
association cortex? I will present recent work describing various features
of a principal gradient in cortical connectivity that spans between primary
sensory/motor areas and higher-order transmodal association regions that in
humans are known as the default-mode network. This arrangement suggests
developmental mechanisms giving rise to the spatial distribution of cortical
functions, and provides an anatomical scaffolding for investigating the
propagation of information at both local and distributed spatial scales.

I hope to see you there / J’espère vous voir nombreux.
