Default mode network

Caption

A functional MRI scan reveals the default mode network in the brain of a person at rest. Researchers with the Adult Aging Brain Connectome Study are collecting these and similar brain scans from 1,000 adults to study risk and resilience in the aging brain. The project, which involves researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis and other institutions, is funded by a $33.1 million grant from the National Institute on Aging.
