MRI Techniques for Bridging Structural, Functional, and Causal Brain Networks<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

University of Eastern Finland, Kuopio<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

December 9-11, Tietoteknia auditorium<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Endorsed by Finnish and European imaging infrastructures:<\/strong> EuroBioImaging and Finnish BioImaging <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Event Description<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) continues to expand our ability to map the brain\u2019s wiring, dynamics, and causal interactions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

20th<\/sup> Kuopio Bio-MRI Workshop, with the theme of \u201cMRI Techniques for Bridging Structural, Functional, and Causal Brain Networks\u201d<\/strong>, focuses on how the brain\u2019s wiring, activity, and interactions come together. We are bringing top experts from around the world to follow the full arc from structure to function to causality, featuring the latest advances in tractography and functional imaging methods. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The workshop consists of scientific sessions featuring invited international speakers together with talks selected from submitted abstracts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
