Despite advances in experimental and theoretical neuroscience, we are still trying to identify
key biophysical details that are important for characterizing the operation of brain circuits …

Due to its complex and multifaceted nature, develo** effective treatments for epilepsy is
still a major challenge. To deal with this complexity we introduce the concept of degeneracy …

Biological neurons show significant cell-to-cell variability but have the striking ability to
maintain their key firing properties in the face of unpredictable perturbations and stochastic …

Every neuron is part of a network, exerting its function by transforming multiple
spatiotemporal synaptic input patterns into a single spiking output. This function is specified …

Local field potential (LFP) recordings reflect the dynamics of the current source density
(CSD) in brain tissue. The synaptic, cellular, and circuit contributions to current sinks and …

What physiological role does a slow hyperpolarization‐activated ion channel with mixed
cation selectivity play in the fast world of neuronal action potentials that are driven by …

Temperature affects the conductances and kinetics of the ionic channels that underlie
neuronal activity. Each membrane conductance has a different characteristic temperature …

Nociceptive sensory neurons convey pain-related signals to the CNS using action
potentials. Loss-of-function mutations in the voltage-gated sodium channel Na V 1.7 cause …

This is a book about 'Neurodynamics'. What we mean is that this is a book about how ideas
from dynamical systems theory have been developed and employed in recent years to give …

Neuronal excitabilities behave as the basic and important dynamics related to the transitions
between firing and resting states, and are characterized by distinct bifurcation types and …
