Title: Mathematical Models of Human Brain Folding Pattern Formation &
Characterization
In this presentation I will give an overview of my research involving
cortical pattern formation and conformal flat maps of the human brain.
I will discuss some of biological theories of cortical folding pattern
formation and some
of the mathematical models I am developing to help answer questions
regarding cortical folding pattern development and cortical malformation
diseases.
