Modular structure-function coupling reveals different network reorganization for task performance. Communications Biology, In press, 2026 [pdf] Understanding how structural and functional brain networks interact to support cognition remains a central challenge in systems neuroscience. Here, we investigated modular structure–function coupling (SFC) across cognitive tasks using multimodal neuroimaging data. We separated SFC into intra-modular coupling […]
