Figure 2. A set of brain areas that are active at rest and share a similar timecourse of activity is shown. The top row represents the average "resting state network" from a group of 15 healthy controls, the middle row 14 schizophrenia patients, and the bottom row 17 bipolar disorder patients. It is clear that there are broad similarities in the brain areas in this network across conditions, but there are also subtle differences, which we are currently investigating.
