报告题目：The normal development and aging of human brain networks studied with multimodal MRI
报告摘要：The human brain can be considered as a complex system or network. Recent advances on the quantitative analysis of complex networks, based largely on graph theory, have been rapidly applied to studies of topological organization of brain network. The structural and functional systems of the human brain show important topological properties, such as small-world, highly connected hubs, and modularity. We have built a large-scale Japanese brain MRI database, which includes the multimodal neuroimaging data of more than 2,500 healthy subjects aged from 6-80 years. We were previously engaged in the studies of structural brain networks using structural MRI and diffusion MRI data, and the studies of functional brain networks using resting-state fMRI data. The small-world and modular organizations in both structural and functional brain networks were identified in healthy children and adults. Moreover, the quantifiable network properties showed significant age-related changes during normal development and aging. These findings might contribute to our knowledge of network topology and dynamics in the healthy, developing, and aging brain. In this talk, I will present our methodology of brain network studies and the applications in normal development and aging. Additionally, I will also present future research directions in this field.
