Fiber Segment-Based Degradation Methods for a Finite Element-Informed Structural Brain Network

“…This modeling effort sits within a larger research program at the U.S. Army Research Laboratory (ARL) to understand brain structure-function couplings. The overall goal of this effort is to better understand how variability in structural connectivity due to traumatic insult or natural variability between healthy individuals relates to differences in the brain's functional connectivity (9,10) and, ultimately, to individual differences in human behavior. The modeling effort described here focuses on understanding the effects of traumatic brain insult.…”
