Visualize brain connections using Circos
This bit of code and data allows for the visualization of white matter connections in the brain. The brain lobes are color coded. The brain regions used are based on the Automated Anatomical Labeling (AAL). N. Tzourio-Mazoyer, B. Landeau, D. Papathanassiou, F. Crivello, O. Etard, N. Delcroix, Bernard Mazoyer, M. Joliot (2002).
