The human brain is exceedingly complex and studying it encompasses gathering
information across a range of levels, from molecular processes to behavior. The sheer …

How does the brain work? After a century of research, we still lack a coherent view of how
neurons process signals and control our activities. But as the field of computational …

To learn how cognition is implemented in the brain, we must build computational models
that can perform cognitive tasks, and test such models with brain and behavioral …

Neuroscience seeks to understand how neural circuits lead to behavior. However, the gap
between circuits and behavior is too wide. An intermediate level is one of neural …

The human brain is a biological organ, weighing about three pounds or 1.4 kg, that
determines our behaviors, thoughts, emotions and consciousness. Although comprising only …

A comprehensive, integrated, and accessible textbook presenting core neuroscientific topics
from a computational perspective, tracing a path from cells and circuits to behavior and …

Although twenty-first century neuroscience is a major scientific enterprise, advances in basic
research have not yet translated into benefits for society. In this paper, I outline seven …
