Bursting is one of the fundamental rhythms that excitable cells can generate either in
response to incoming stimuli or intrinsically. It has been a topic of intense research in …

The interactions between mathematics and physiology have a long and illustrious history, of
which the study of calcium signalling is but a small chapter. Nevertheless, for those involved …

Pseudo-plateau bursting is a type of oscillatory waveform associated with mixed mode
dynamics in slow/fast systems and commonly found in neural bursting models. In a recent …

Inner hair cells (IHCs) are excitable sensory cells in the inner ear that encode acoustic
information. Before the onset of hearing IHCs fire calcium-based action potentials that trigger …

Rapid action potential generation-spiking-and alternating intervals of spiking and
quiescence-bursting-are two dynamic patterns commonly observed in neuronal activity. In …

In order to investigate the bursting dynamics as well as generating mechanism in cellular
neural networks (CNN), a state controlled cellular neural network (SCsingle bondCNN) …

The endocrine cells of the pituitary gland are electrically active, and in vivo they form small
networks where the bidirectional cell-cell coupling is through gap junctions. Numerous …

Bursting is an intrinsically electrical activity in excitable cells such as endocrine cells and
many types of neurons. Our purpose is to recognize the pituitary model from a new …

The electrical activity of endocrine pituitary cells is mediated by a plethora of ionic currents
and establishing the role of a single channel type is difficult. Experimental observations have …

Bursting oscillations in excitable systems reflect multi-timescale dynamics. These
oscillations have often been studied in mathematical models by splitting the equations into …
