Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Disorders of the central nervous system, such as cerebrovascular diseases, cerebrospinal trauma, and encephalomyelitis, often cause spatiotemporal changes in the nervous system and in various biological systems, such as the immune system and vascular system. In this study, we analyzed disorders of the neural networks in the central nervous system and the subsequent restoration process from the perspective of the functional network of biological systems. Further, we analyzed the mechanism by which the spatiotemporal dynamics in those biological systems control a series of processes. Additionally, we elucidated the principles involved in the operation of living organisms with neural network disorders within the central nervous system by observing such disorders and their functional recovery process with respect to the dynamics of the entire biological system and by conducting a comprehensive analysis of the association between each system.
