Resting State fMRI

This Biotech Symposium will focus on resting-state fMRI, a neuroimaging technique that uses dynamic changes in oxygenated blood flow to explore the brain’s functional organization when a person is at rest and not performing an explicit task.

Speakers:

Randy Buckner, Harvard University: The Basics of Functional Connectivity MRI

Steven Petersen, Washington University: Network Analysis of Functional Connectivity MRI Can Identify Systems and Vulnerable Locations

Michael Milham, Child Mind Institute: An Emerging Big Data Resource for Imaging-Based Biomarker Identification
