Synchronous rhythms represent a core mechanism for sculpting temporal coordination of
neural activity in the brain-wide network. This review focuses on oscillations in the cerebral …

At any one moment, many neuronal groups in our brain are active. Microelectrode
recordings have characterized the activation of single neurons and fMRI has unveiled brain …

Cortical neurons receive balanced excitatory and inhibitory synaptic currents. Such a
balance could be established and maintained in an experience-dependent manner by …

Networks of living neurons exhibit diverse patterns of activity, including oscillations,
synchrony, and waves. Recent work in physics has shown yet another mode of activity in …

Taking a step-by-step approach to modelling neurons and neural circuitry, this textbook
teaches students how to use computational techniques to understand the nervous system at …

Giulio Tononi's integrated information theory (IIT) proposes explaining consciousness by
directly identifying it with integrated information. We examine the construct validity of IIT's …

This study examines the ability of neurons to track temporally varying inputs, namely by
investigating how the instantaneous firing rate of a neuron is modulated by a noisy input with …

The brain is a highly modular structure. To exploit modularity, it is necessary that spiking
activity can propagate from one module to another while preserving the information it …

Neural network modeling is often concerned with stimulus-driven responses, but most of the
activity in the brain is internally generated. Here, we review network models of internally …

Neuronal groups can interact with each other even if they are widely separated. One group
might modulate its firing rate or its internal oscillatory synchronization to influence another …
