Hemispheric-Specific Coupling Improves Modeling of Functional Connectivity Using Wilson–Cowan Dynamics

"Large-scale neural mass models have been widely used to simulate resting-state brain activity from structural connectivity. In this work, we extend a well-established Wilson--Cowan framework by introducing a novel hemispheric-specific coupling scheme that differentiates between intra-hemispher...
