image: Age-related brain connectivity patterns sorted into (A) brainnetome atlas regions and (B) Yeo’s 7 networks. For the purpose of illustrating the region-wise and network-wise rsFC patterns, the NBS thresholded edges’ regression coefficients are averaged across their respective regions and networks.
