Deskripsi
Chen at al used fMRI to study the brain connectivity in two ageing cohorts and a mixed cohort of patients with neurodegenerative diseases. They demonstrated that with ageing the brain moves towards a more segregated modular structure, however this is disrupted by neurodegenerative diseases.
