A NeuroMat project group to simulate cortical networks using stochastic models

During the last NeuroMat workshop, PI Antonio Carlos Roque presented a project on simulating neuronal behaviors associated to the Galves-Löcherbach model. Computational simulation could provide insights on brain dynamics, especially if the simulated models have very large sizes. Postdoctoral researcher Nilton Kamiji and PhD students Rodrigo Pena and César Ceballos are part of this project; Kamiji also presented on neuronal modeling at the NeuroMat workshop.

A brain soccer derby

An interesting way of thinking on brain functioning --and research in this area-- is to compare neurons to soccer fans in a stadium. Scientists would be observers "outside" the stadium, trying to make sense of what goes on "on the field." Antonio Galves, Mente e Cérebro, 01/2017. (In Portuguese.)
