Cognitive performance in healthy older adults relates to spontaneous switching between states of functional connectivity during rest
Growing evidence has shown that brain activity at rest slowly wanders through a repertoire
of different states, where whole-brain functional connectivity (FC) temporarily settles into …

Signatures of white-matter microstructure degradation during aging and its association with cognitive status
Previous studies have shown an association between cognitive decline and white matter
integrity in aging. This led to the formulation of a “disconnection hypothesis” in the aging …
