The objective of the Summerschool is to provide in depth education on techniques of computing and analyzing connectivity in the brain, covering both theoretical foundations and practical applications.

To date most experimental paradigms have focused on gaze in static situations. With improvements in technology and increasingly sophisticated models it has become feasible to investigate more complex dynamic situations.

The workshop aims to discuss the current state of the art in MEG data analysis and experimental design. What are the most promising paths and strategies for future development, especially with respect to research on higher cognitive functions?

In recent years, connectivity has been recognized as a major determinant of brain function. The notion of connectivity encompasses physical connectedness between brain areas and structures (structural connectivity), correlations between activations of different brain areas (functional connectivity), and the influence one area exerts over another (causality, effective connectivity).
