Background: DopaNet http://www.dopanet.org is a Systems Biology initiative that aims to investigate precisely and quantitatively all the aspects of neurotransmission in a specific...
The immense computational and adaptive power of the cerebral cortex emerges from the collective dynamics of large populations of interacting neurons. Thus, for theoretical investi...
in vitro neuronal networks display Synchronized Bursting Events (SBEs), with characteristic temporal width of 100-500 ms and frequency of once every few seconds. We analyze such d...
Virtual neurons are essential in computational neuroscience to study the relation between neuronal form and function. One way of obtaining virtual neurons is by algorithmic genera...
Background: Neuronal communication is tightly regulated in time and in space. The neuronal transmission takes place in the nerve terminal, at a specialized structure called the sy...
We describe a programmable multi-chip VLSI neuronal system that can be used for exploring spike-based information processing models. The system consists of a silicon retina, a PIC...
