> > Interdisciplinary contributions to the study of brain mechanics have
> greatly advanced our theories of the neurodynamic operations employed by
> the brain. Although the brain exhibits continuous ongoing activity,
> variation in the spatiotemporal patterns of activation observed across
> different brain regions during rest versus active processing provides
> valuable information about functional connectivity and strategies for
> information processing.
> >
> > This conference will explore the most up-to-date theories of normal
> brain function and how these processes may be altered to produce
> pathological states. Furthermore, it will explore the models and methods
> used to describe the proposed neural strategies subserving these different
> brain states.
