Abstract
Time-resolved analysis of resting state fMRI data allows researchers to extract more information about brain function than traditional functional connectivity analysis, yet a number of challenges in data analysis and interpretation remain. This manuscript briefly summarizes common methods for time-resolved analysis and presents some of the pressing issues and opportunities in the field. From there, the discussion moves to the interpretation of the network dynamics observed with resting state fMRI and the role that resting state fMRI can play in elucidating the large-scale organization of brain activity.
