Journal ArticleDOI

Toward discovery science of human brain function

Bharat B. Biswal, +54 more
TL;DR: The 1000 Functional Connectomes Project (Fcon_1000) as discussed by the authors is a large-scale collection of functional connectome data from 1,414 volunteers collected independently at 35 international centers.
Journal ArticleDOI

A method for making group inferences from functional MRI data using independent component analysis

TL;DR: A novel approach for drawing group inferences using ICA of fMRI data is introduced, and its application to a simple visual paradigm that alternately stimulates the left or right visual field is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tract Probability Maps in Stereotaxic Spaces: Analyses of White Matter Anatomy and Tract-Specific Quantification

TL;DR: This study created a white matter parcellation atlas based on probabilistic maps of 11 major white matter tracts derived from the DTI data from 28 normal subjects, and automated tract-specific quantification of fractional anisotropy and mean diffusivity were performed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Meta-analysis of Go/No-go tasks demonstrating that fMRI activation associated with response inhibition is task-dependent

TL;DR: The results support the notion that the pre-SMA is critical for selection of appropriate behavior, whether selecting to execute an appropriate response or selecting to inhibit an inappropriate response.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spatial and temporal independent component analysis of functional MRI data containing a pair of task-related waveforms.

TL;DR: A careful examination of some of the assumptions behind ICA methodologies is reported, examples of when applying ICA would provide difficult‐to‐interpret results, and suggestions for applying I CA to fMRI data especially when more than one task‐related component is present in the data are offered.
