Contextual connectivity: A framework for understanding the intrinsic dynamic architecture of large-scale functional brain networks

Abstract Investigations of the human brain’s connectomic architecture have produced two alternative models: one describes the brain’s spatial structure in terms of static localized networks, and the other describes the brain’s temporal structure in terms of dynamic whole-brain states. Here, we used...
