molecular program responsible for its development, cellular structure and function. We …

Towards a biologically annotated brain connectome

V Bazinet, JY Hansen, B Misic - Nature reviews neuroscience, 2023 - nature.com
The brain is a network of interleaved neural circuits. In modern connectomics, brain
connectivity is typically encoded as a network of nodes and edges, abstracting away the rich …

The economy of brain network organization

E Bullmore, O Sporns - Nature reviews neuroscience, 2012 - nature.com
The brain is expensive, incurring high material and metabolic costs for its size—relative to
the size of the body—and many aspects of brain network organization can be mostly …

A transcriptional signature of hub connectivity in the mouse connectome

BD Fulcher, A Fornito - … of the National Academy of Sciences, 2016 - National Acad Sciences
Connectivity is not distributed evenly throughout the brain. Instead, it is concentrated on a
small number of highly connected neural elements that act as network hubs. Across different …
