Computational Neuroimaging Analysis Of Language And Cognitive Control Networks: Mining The Human Connectome Project Data Set
SPRING 2014 RESEARCH INCUBATION AWARDEES
Jason Bohland (Health Services, Sargent College) and David Somers (Psychology, College of Arts and Sciences)
The overall goal of this project is to develop, test and validate computational methods for defining canonical brain networks and for identifying them in individual brains. Although Professors Bohland and Somers have known each other for several years, this is their first research collaboration and promises to strengthen their collaborative relationship. It also provides an opportunity to develop preliminary results that support 1-2 NIH R01 grant projects, and accelerate the development of advanced computational approaches to neuroimaging data analysis at BU. The Hariri Institute is a strong home for this type of work, with the opportunity to collaborate with computer scientists in the institute as the project advances.
This work is funded by a Hariri Research Award made in June, 2014.
