Dynamical neuroscience describes the non-linear dynamics at many levels of the brain from single neural cells [3] to cognitive processes, sleep states and the behavior of neurons in large-scale neuronal simulation. [4] Neurons have been modeled as nonlinear systems for decades, but dynamical systems are not constrained to neurons. Dynamical ...
J. A. Scott Kelso (born 1947 in Derry, Northern Ireland) is an American neuroscientist, and Professor of Complex Systems and Brain Sciences, Professor of Psychology, Biological Sciences and Biomedical Science at Florida Atlantic University (FAU) in Boca Raton, Florida and The University of Ulster (Magee Campus) in Derry, N. Ireland.
Bard Ermentrout is known for his contributions to computational and mathematical neuroscience. His joint work with Nancy Kopell derived the Ermentrout and Kopell canonical model, [4] He and David Terman wrote the book Mathematical Foundations of Neuroscience. [5] He helped to develop the dynamical systems software XPPAuto. [6]
For his prolific contributions of reviews on the organization of and history of research on memory systems, for editing textbooks on neuroscience and learning and memory and biographies of the leaders of neuroscience research, and for contributing numerous book reviews, which have provided a valuable resource for neuroscientists and has made ...
The Werner Reichardt Centre for Integrative Neuroscience (CIN) is the common platform for systems neuroscience at the University of Tübingen in Germany. It was installed as a cluster of excellence within the framework of the Excellence Initiative in 2007/2008. About 90 scientists with their research groups – 21 of which are supported with ...
In 2002, Mackey founded the Systems Neuroscience and Pain Laboratory (SNAPL) and has served as the director since. [1] His lab uses state-of the art neuroimaging tools. They investigate emotional and cognitive factors that influence pain, as well neural plastic changes that occur in chronic pain patients using a variety of research methods such ...
The term is commonly used in an educational framework: a common sequence of graduate school neuroscience courses consists of cellular/molecular neuroscience for the first semester, then systems neuroscience for the second semester. It is also sometimes used to distinguish a subdivision within a neuroscience department in a university.
Free energy minimisation has been proposed as a hallmark of self-organising systems when cast as random dynamical systems. [30] This formulation rests on a Markov blanket (comprising action and sensory states) that separates internal and external states. If internal states and action minimise free energy, then they place an upper bound on the ...
