Event Abstract Back to Event Watching the brain at work: a brief introduction to issues in functional neuroimaging Hirac Gurden1* 1 CNRS, Université Paris Diderot et Paris Sud, Imagerie et Modélisation en Neurobiologie et Cancérologie, France Coding in the brain circuits is characterized by distributed spatiotemporal dynamics of activity. A major challenge in the neuroscience field is to image the spatial distribution and follow the temporal dynamics of activity in large cellular populations in vivo. Here I present the different contrast sources that made possible a multifaceted investigation of network activity in vivo and the critical issues to improve these functional recordings. This talk is an introduction to an MNS symposium entitled "Mapping brain activation by functional MRI and optical neuroimaging : cellular and vascular basis and insights into brain function". Keywords: BOLD fMRI, optical imaging, Neuroenergetics, Hemodynamics, Astrocytes Conference: 4th Conference of the Mediterrarnean Neuroscience Society, Istanbul, Turkey, 30 Sep - 3 Oct, 2012.
