Speaker: Ilan Libedinsky Pardo (PhD candidate at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam)
In this talk, Ilan will present their recent work on polyconnectomic scoring (PCS), a method designed to quantify disorder-related whole-brain connectivity patterns. PCS measures the extent to which an individual’s brain functional connectivity mirrors disease-specific connectivity signatures, offering a comprehensive view of neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders. The speaker applied PCS across a large number of datasets with resting-state fMRI data, covering eight neuropsychiatric and three neurodegenerative conditions (+10,000 individuals), revealing generalizable whole-brain connectivity alterations across multiple disorders.
