Extended Data Fig. 7: Correlated deactivations of PCC, IPC and LTC during math tasks are coordinated by the rotation of brain spirals.

From: Interacting spiral wave patterns underlie complex brain dynamics and are related to cognitive processing

Extended Data Fig. 7

a, Trial-averaged task-evoked fMRI responses (temporally filtered, 0.01–0.1 Hz) at the onset of math (listening) tasks over the flattened (left) and inflated (lateral view: middle; medial view: right) cortical surface. The colour map denotes the min-max normalized fMRI amplitude. Gray solid lines mark the boundaries separating seven functional networks59. Black circles highlight the centres of anticlockwise brain spirals. White circles highlight the centres of clockwise brain spirals. b, Zoomed-in snapshots of trial-averaged task-evoked fMRI responses following task onset in regions around PCC, SPC and DS over both flattened (left) and inflated (right) cortical surface. c, Same as b, but in regions around IPC. d, Same as c, but in regions around LTC and MTC.
