Title: Neuromechanics of working memory errors: a neural field approach Abstract: We develop and analyze neurocomputational models to account for systematic errors in visual working memory tasks. Our framework is a neural field model with lateral …
Title: Role of gap junctions in a neuron astrocyte network model Abstract: A detailed biophysical model for a neuron/astrocyte network is developed in order to explore mechanisms responsible for the initiation and propagation of cortical spreading depolarizations and the …
Title: Emergence of vascularization networks Abstract: Networks are patterns created dynamically in order to optimize the distribution or the exchange of quantities in an environment. They appear naturally in Nature, for instance in human biology (neural network, respiratory …
Title: Strategies to estimate synaptic conductances Abstract: The information about the synaptic conductances received by a single neurone can provide insights on the excitation/inhibition balance in parts of the brain. In this talk we will give an …
Title: Better Living Through Control: With Applications to Neural and Cardiac Systems Abstract: Some brain disorders are hypothesized to have a dynamical origin; in particular, it has been been hypothesized that some symptoms of Parkinson’s disease are due to pathologically …
Title: Some issues in model reduction and simplification Abstract: An important use for mathematical models of physiological processes is to help distinguish between competing hypotheses about the physiological mechanisms underlying observed behaviour; models constructed using different hypotheses can …
