Intramodular synchrony progression. Panel a shows the evolution of intramodular synchrony within each of the 11 functional modules. The aberration of the Frontal module near whole brain synchrony is due to a single low-degree node. Panel b compares the intramodular synchrony of the modules to that of the hub nodes. Notably, the hub nodes led all of the functional modules in intramodular synchrony even though they were spatially distributed across the functional modules, and possessed a structural density on par with the average of the functional modules. Panel c shows the influence of each of the 11 modules and the hub nodes on the frequency of Default Mode Network nodes. The hub nodes become dominant in the process of global synchronization during the critical regime
