Cognitive functions such as memory, attention and language are critical for our survival and success as a species. They rely on cortical networks connected by bundles of axons (i.e., white matter) which, when disconnected, can lead to different disorders. While tremendous progress in our anatomical description of white matter has been achieved in the last 20 years [1], the relationship between brain connections and the emergence of cognitive functions remains elusive. This proposal aims to unveil the functional specialization of the white matter in the brain in a data-driven way [2].
