The relationship between static functional connectivity (FC) and structural connectivity (SC) has been long-recognised. More recently, functional connectivity has increasingly focused on the investigation of temporal variations of the BOLD fMRI signal; however, the role of SC on the observed FC fluctuations is not trivial or well understood. We show here that the structural rich-club organisation of the brain better describes the FC fluctuations than simply considering SC strength.
