Abstract
Due to their integrative role in brain function, long-range white matter connections exhibit high individual variability, giving rise to personalised brain circuits. This neurovariability is more evident in the connection patterns of brain areas that have evolved more recently. Diffusion MRI tractography allows unique opportunities for comparative neuroanatomy across species to study evolution and provide unique insights into the phylogeny of brain networks, which we overview in this note, inspired by discussions at the International Society for Tractography (IST) retreat.
期刊介绍:
Brain Structure & Function publishes research that provides insight into brain structure−function relationships. Studies published here integrate data spanning from molecular, cellular, developmental, and systems architecture to the neuroanatomy of behavior and cognitive functions. Manuscripts with focus on the spinal cord or the peripheral nervous system are not accepted for publication. Manuscripts with focus on diseases, animal models of diseases, or disease-related mechanisms are only considered for publication, if the findings provide novel insight into the organization and mechanisms of normal brain structure and function.
