Comparison of modelling approaches to transcranial magnetic stimulation.
(2014)This paper describes a comparison of modelling approaches to transcranial magnetic stimulation. -
Complementarity of spike- and rate-based dynamics of neural systems
(Public Library of Science, 2012)Relationships between spiking-neuron and rate-based approaches to the dynamics of neural assemblies are explored by analyzing a model system that can be treated by both methods, with the rate-based method further averaged ... -
A continuum model for the dynamics of the phase transition from slow-wave sleep to REM sleep
(Springer, 2010)Previous studies have shown that activated cortical states (awake and rapid eye-movement (REM) sleep), are associated with increased cholinergic input into the cerebral cortex. However, the mechanisms that underlie the ... -
Cortical patterns and gamma genesis are modulated by reversal potentials and gap-junction diffusion
(Springer, 2010)In this chapter we describe a continuum model for the cortex that includes both axon-to-dendrite chemical synapses and direct neuron-to-neuron gap-junction diffusive synapses. The effectiveness of chemical synapses is ... -
Dense gap-junction connections support dynamic Turing structures in the cortex
(BioMed Central Ltd, 2007-07)The recent report by Fukuda et al [1] provides convincing evidence for dense gap-junction connectivity between inhibitory neurons in the cat visual cortex, each neuron making 60 +/- 12 gap-junction dendritic connections ...
