S31 Structurally informed analyses of functional connectivity in stroke

Stroke is the leading cause of disability in industrialized countries, has a big impact on quality of life, and is of high socioeconomic relevance. Despite great advances of acute therapy – like thrombolysis and mechanical thrombectomy – approximately 50% of stroke survivors suffer from permanent neurological deficits, mostly because of structural and functional neural network failure.
