About this Research Topic
This Research Topic aims to highlight the latest experimental techniques and methods used to investigate fundamental questions in brain connectivity research. Review articles or opinions on methodologies or applications including the advantages and limitations of each, as well as studies investigating the brain connectivity patterns with brain stimulation methods are welcomed. This Topic includes technologies and up-to-date methods which help advance science.
The contributions to this collection will undergo peer review. Novelty may vary, but the utility of a method or protocol must be evident. We welcome contributions covering all aspects of brain connectivity. Submissions will be handled by the team of Topic Editors.
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience supports the FAIR (Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability, and Reusability) principles for scientific data management and stewardship (Wilkinson et al., Sci. Data 3:160018, 2016).
This Research Topic welcomes:
• Methods: Describing either new or existing methods that are significantly improved or adapted for the purpose of investigating brain connectivity. These manuscripts may include primary (original) data.
• Original Research investigating brain connectivity using brain stimulation methods.
• Original Research investigating the effects of brain stimulation on functional and anatomical connectivity.
• Protocols: Detailed descriptions, including pitfalls and troubleshooting, to benefit those who may evaluate or employ the techniques. The protocols must be proven to work.
• Perspective or General Commentaries on methods and protocols relevant for brain connectivity research.
• Reviews and mini-reviews of topical methods and protocols highlighting the important future directions of the field.
