Perturbation of resting-state network nodes preferentially propagates to structurally rather than functionally connected regions

Abstract Combining Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) with electroencephalography (EEG) offers the opportunity to study signal propagation dynamics at high temporal resolution in the human brain. TMS pulse induces a local effect which propagates across cortical networks engaging distant cortica...
