ALEXANDRIA, Va., Feb. 11 -- United States Patent no. 12,548,658, issued on Feb. 10, was assigned to The Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University (Stanford, Calif.).

"Systems and methods for scalable mapping of brain dynamics" was invented by Manish Saggar (Stanford, Calif.), Samir Chowdhury (Stanford, Calif.) and Caleb Geniesse (Stanford, Calif.).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "Systems and methods for scalable mapping of brain dynamics are capable of mapping brain dynamics in a computationally efficient way. Shape graphs can be produced which can operate as interactive network representations of dynamic brain activity data. In methods for automatically interpreting the structu...
