Program Description:
The increasing adoption of static and dynamic mathematical brain models has created many new mathematical problems in graph theory, statistics, dynamical systems and signal processing. Such problems characteristically span multiple domains within mathematics and require expertise in neuroscience. This research program is aimed at fostering collaboration between mathematicians and neuroscientists to develop mathematical models to explain the relationships between the brain’s structure and function, and connectivity between and within brain regions, generating new insights into mechanisms of brain learning and inform new mathematics of machine learning based on brain structure and dynamical connectivity. In the longer term, these new mathematical methods and network-theoretic metrics may be used to identify and track brain disorders and injuries and (re-)train injured brains, and in other domains where path finding using multiple criteria is important.
