Funded Activity Summary

The physical brain: emergent, multiscale, nonlinear, and critical dynamics. The physical brain: emergent, multiscale, nonlinear, and critical dynamics. This project aims to transform the understanding of the structure and function of the brain as a complex physical system. It aims to reveal and unify new aspects of information processing, transitions in conscious state, and nonlinear brain interactions by translating and applying concepts and methods from physics and mathematics. It will treat brain structure and dynamics together to address emergent phenomena like waves and patterns on multiple scales, treating waves as equal participants alongside neurons. Innovative predictions of brain phenomena will aim to be verified against data and used to understand brain networks, dynamics, and the physical phenomena underlying information processing and consciousness.
