Temporal and Spatial Scales of Human Resting-state Cortical Activity Across the Lifespan

John Bero, Colin Humphries, Yang Li, Aviral Kumar, Heungyeol Lee, Maxwell Shinn, John D. Murray, Timothy J. Vickery, Daeyeol Lee

The paper quantifies age-related changes in temporal and spatial scales of resting-state fMRI signals across the lifespan and links these changes to cortical myelination.
