[Neuroinfo] Workshop - Brain Networks and Neurological Disorders: from Theory to Clinic

[Marinho Lopes]

Brain Networks and Neurological Disorders: from Theory to Clinic
Tuesday 10 April 2018, 9:30-17:30
Living Systems Institute, University of Exeter
 
This free, one-day workshop will explore the role of brain networks in neurological disorders, with a focus on the latest advances in dynamic network models, data analysis and clinical applications.
 
Network theory is increasingly becoming a key mathematical framework to drive understanding of the brain. This new field promises to unveil the mechanisms through which the brain functions, and how neurological disorders may in turn evolve by studying the breakdown of these fundamental mechanisms. This research has the potential to revolutionize not only healthcare, but also artificial intelligence.
 
The workshop will feature four keynote speakers:
 
Prof Christophe Bernard
PhysioNet Team Leader at Inserm, Aix-Marseille Université
“The dynamic epileptic brain”
 
Prof Stephan van Gils
Chair for Nonlinear Analysis in the Department of Applied Mathematics, University of Twente
“The Cross-Scale Effects of Neural Interactions during Human Neocortical Seizure Activity”
 
Dr Andre Peterson
Department of Medicine, St. Vincent’s Hospital Melbourne, The University of Melbourne
“Epileptogenesis from a theoretical network perspective”
 
Dr Christian Rummel
Support Center for Advanced Neuroimaging (SCAN), University of Bern
“Quantitative analysis of EEG and MRI in diagnostics for epilepsy surgery”
 
There is also the opportunity for participants to deliver an oral presentation or take part in a poster session.
