Understanding the origin and coordination of these representations will require determining how task-relevant information is generated by brain network interactions. I will share recent insights into these processes gained via activity flow modeling \u2013 an approach for creating neural network simulations from empirical brain data. This involves using empirical brain connectivity data to build computational models that generate task-evoked brain activity. Investigating the resulting model yields insights into the processes in the brain that generate that activity. The key construct bridging data and modeling is\u00a0<i>activity flow<\/i> \u2013 the movement of neural activity over brain connections \u2013 which is key to computation in neural network models and is known to occur in real brains. I will share results that use the (open source) Brain Activity Flow Toolbox\u00a0to identify brain network processes underlying the generation of visual categories (e.g., faces; see Figure), highly abstract cognition (e.g., rules), and motor responses (behavior). This approach has also been applied to understand the brain network processes underlying aberrant cognition in brain disorders such as schizophrenia and Alzheimer\u2019s disease. Together these findings demonstrate the utility of the activity flow modeling framework for discovering the network processes generating (healthy and unhealthy) cognition in the human brain, ultimately supporting the hypothesis that neural functions are generated (computed) by distributed activity flow processes that are specified primarily by connectivity patterns.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1005 size-large\" src=\"http:\/\/sites.rutgers.edu\/cahbir\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/536\/2024\/01\/cole_talk_teaser-1024x423.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"423\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.rutgers.edu\/cahbir\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/536\/2024\/01\/cole_talk_teaser-1024x423.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.rutgers.edu\/cahbir\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/536\/2024\/01\/cole_talk_teaser-300x124.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.rutgers.edu\/cahbir\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/536\/2024\/01\/cole_talk_teaser-768x317.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.rutgers.edu\/cahbir\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/536\/2024\/01\/cole_talk_teaser.png 1266w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We hope you can join in person and that you will make every effort to do so.

They are usually lead by CAHBIR staff, but when appropriate, others take the reigns and occasionally, visiting speakers will deliver a talk. They take place in the newly renovated conference room in the Staged Research Building and are usually structured for one hour, though sometimes longer presentations will be scheduled with advance notice.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Presenter:\u00a0Michael W.
