  • Coherent Behavior in Neuronal Networks

    Edited by Jonathan Rubin, Manuel Matias, Ranulfo Romo, Krešimir Josic ...
    Series Book 3 - Springer Series in Computational Neuroscience
    Recent experimental research advances have led to increasingly detailed descriptions of how networks of interacting neurons process information. With these developments, it has become clear that dynamic network behaviors underlie information processing, and that the observed activity patterns cannot be fully explained by simple concepts such as synchrony and phase locking. These new insights raise ... Read more
