Brain areas

…depend on prior states and other brain areas. In human EEG, microstate sequences exhibit dependencies beyond dwell time and first-order Markov predictions, and stimuli systematically reshape those dependencies. Linking ensemble and EEG dynamics may reveal classes of individual responses and inform ge

As a developmental outpocket of the brain, the retina exhibits features commonly found in most brain areas, including neurovascular interactions. In this presentation I will discuss various pathways that contribute to neurovascular interactions in the mammalian retina and present newly uncovered elements that likely participate in these pathways. Information obtained from retina could improve our understanding of neurovascular coupling pathways throughout the brain.
