<i>Colloquium</i>: Multiscale modeling of brain network organization

Abstract

The brain is a formidably complex system made of neurons and neuronal ensembles that segregate and integrate information across organized layers at multiple spatial and temporal scales. A physicist's perspective is provided on modeling the brain as interconnected and multilayered networks that grow into complex organizations for processing information dynamically. The analytical tools for multilayer networks root deeply in statistical physics that render interpretable features connecting network patterns as biomarkers to a mental state or brain diseases.
