Inside information: Systematic within-node functional connectivity changes observed across tasks or groups.

ABSTRACT: Mapping the human connectome and understanding its relationship to brain function holds tremendous clinical potential. The connectome has two fundamental components: the nodes and the sconnections between them. While much attention has been given to deriving atlases and measuring the connections between nodes, there have been no studies examining the networks within nodes. Here we demonstrate that each node contains significant connectivity information, that varies systematically across task-induced states and subjects, such that measures based on these variations can be used to classify tasks and identify subjects. The results are not specific for any particular atlas but hold across different atlas resolutions. To date, studies examining changes in connectivity have focused on edge chang
