Dans cet exposé\, je présenterai l'imagerie de diffusion en bref à des fins de quantification de l'intégrité de la mat ière blanche et sa connectivité via la tractographie. Je présenterai de fa çon didactique le « connectome »\, son importance pour les neurosciences e t les maladies du cerveau\, afin que tous les membres du REPARTI puissent apprécier et apprendre quelque chose. Je partagerai quelques contributions personnelles au domaine et vous donnerez ma vision du futur pour l'imager ie du connectome de façon quantitative et multi-modale.\n\n \n\nAbstract: \n\nDiffusion magnetic resonance imaging is based on the Brownian motion o f the water molecules in biological tissue. In this talk\, I will briefly present diffusion imaging for the purpose of quantifying the integrity of white matter and its connectivity via tractography. I will present in a di dactic manner the 'connectome'\, its importance for neurosciences and brai n diseases\, so that all REPARTI members will be able to learn something. I will share some personal contributions to the field and give you my visi on of the future for connectome imaging in a quantitative and multimodal w ay.\n\n \n\nBio:\n\nMaxime DESCOTEAUX\, PhD is a Professor in Computer Sci ence since 2009 in the Faculty of Science of Sherbrooke University. He is the founder and director of the Sherbrooke Connectivity Imaging Laboratory (SCIL). His research focuses on brain connectivity from state-of-the-art diffusion MRI acquisition\, reconstruction\, tractography\, processing and visualization. The aim of the SCIL is to better understand structural con nectivity\, develop novel tractography algorithms\, validate them and use them for human brain mapping and connectomics applications. Maxime Descote aux was a post-doctoral fellow at NeuroSpin under the supervision of Cyril Poupon and Denis Le Bihan. He also obtained a PhD in Computer Science at  INRIA Sophia Antipolis - Mediterranée\, supervised by R. Deriche after com pleting a M.Sc. under the supervision of K. Siddiqi in Computer Science at the Center for Intelligent Machines\, 51³Ô¹ÏÍø\, where he also o btained a B.Sc.\, graduating from the joint honors Mathematics and Compute r Science program. Professor Descoteaux holds the USherbrooke Institutiona l Research Chair in NeuroInformatics. He has been cited more than 8500+ ti mes and has 110+ journal publications\, according to google scholar.\n DTSTART:20210216T170000Z DTEND:20210216T180000Z LOCATION:CA\, ZOOM SUMMARY:A journey on your brain highways: diffusion MRI and connectomics of the future URL:/cim/channels/event/journey-your-brain-highways-di ffusion-mri-and-connectomics-future-328519 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
