Isn't the cortico-basal ganglia-thalamo-cortical loop also a large-scale brain network, in the same sense of the others presented here? And what about the Reward Pathway - and of course there are others as well. As far as I understand there is no clear-cut classification system (neuroscientists use pathway, circuit, network, and system interchangeably without ever bothering to make a proper classification), and the "large-scale brain network" is a class that one of you wiki editors came up with to introduce some order, which of course was a very good idea, but this should probably be mentioned somewhere (as I have never seen this class mentioned in any article or book), and also someone needs to give an overview of the whole hierarchy: neuron->pathway->circuit/network(I guess the two are predominantly equivalent)->LSBN->whatever. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:C7F:5019:2600:D4F3:C9EE:9ACF:4821 (talk) 21:53, 19 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Large-Scale Brain Networks are a relatively discovery in neural science. You can learn more about them if you use Google Scholar, or scientific journals. MarKelly94 (talk) 00:20, 8 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This section has a lot of good information, but, it is written with a focus on depression. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biology_of_depression#Large-scale_brain_network_theory — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bodysurfinyon (talk • contribs) 21:00, 27 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

http://www.nature.com/articles/srep19250 primary sensorimotor cortex, primary visual and extra-striate visual network, fronto-parietal lateralized networks, default mode network, attentional frontoparietal networks, executive control, auditory networks, hippocampal and thalamic formations. These are not the same labels as in the image, which were: Somatosensory, DMN, Attentional L & R, Hippocampal, Visual, Thalamic, Associative, Executive, Auditory/Language.

I removed these two sentences about the task positive network. This is an alternate model of the large-scale networks that has it's own page.

Two large scale brain networks, namely the task-positive network and the default mode network, appear to be anti-correlated. In other words, when either of these large scale brain networks are activated the other large scale brain network demonstrates diminished activity.[4]

Additionally, competition between the task-positive network and the default mode network at the time of memory encoding has been shown to result in poor long-term memory consolidation in healthy controls.[6]

There are also models suggesting that “components of memory representation are distributed widely across different parts of the brain as mediated by multiple neocortical circuits”.^[1] Bodysurfinyon (talk) 03:50, 23 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I am swapping the anatomical and common names in the headings, because that is how they appear in the literature most often. This quote is from the Uddin paper: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7325607/

In our proposed taxonomy, networks are referred to by anatomical names that best describe six ubiquitous large-scale functional systems. The names in blue refer to the broad cognitive domains with which a given anatomical system is most commonly associated. Bodysurfinyon (talk) 17:31, 31 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Controversies and current progress on large-scale brain network nomenclature from OHBM WHATNET: Workgroup for HArmonized Taxonomy of NETworks, Lucina Q. Uddin et al.

Wikipedia:Reliable sources#Preprints - says we need to wait to add WHATNET, but it is so cool...
