An IRCN Mini-Symposium on human brain physiology data analysis was held on December 19, 2019, with participants from Boston Children’s Hospital and MGH Harvard Medical School, Drs. Laurel Gabard-Durnam and Patrick Purdon, and the IRCN Affiliated Faculty, Dr. Fumiyasu Komaki. The speakers introduced cutting-edge studies at the interface between brain functional development and mathematical sciences, including the analysis of anesthesia, brain oscillations and their effects on development/aging, and the mechanism by which experience is embedded in the brain using computational and brain imaging approaches. The exchanging perspectives will facilitate future collaborative studies for the understanding of normal and impaired brain function.
