OHBM in Brisbane
At the Organization for Human Brain Mapping annual meeting of 2025 in Australia, Linda presented the multicenter study on structure-function multilayer network integration in multiple sclerosis (MS) led by Lucas. Using multimodal MRI data from 780 people with MS across 13 European centers, we explored how the brain’s frontoparietal network integrates structure and function and…
