A key element of the European Union's Human Brain Project (HBP) and other large-scale
brain research projects is the simulation of large-scale model networks of neurons. Here, we …

At the centenary of D'Arcy Thompson's seminal work 'On Growth and Form', pioneering the
description of principles of morphological changes during development and evolution …

Leaky integrate-and-fire (LIF) network models are commonly used to study how the spiking
dynamics of neural networks changes with stimuli, tasks or dynamic network states …

Recordings of extracellular electrical, and later also magnetic, brain signals have been the
dominant technique for measuring brain activity for decades. The interpretation of such …

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 …

With rapidly advancing multi-electrode recording technology, the local field potential (LFP)
has again become a popular measure of neuronal activity in both research and clinical …

It is common to study the electric activity of neurons by measuring the electric potential in the
extracellular space of the brain. However, interpreting such measurements requires …

Focal seizures are episodes of pathological brain activity that appear to arise from a
localised area of the brain. The onset patterns of focal seizure activity have been studied …

Local Field Potentials (LFPs) are population signals generated by complex spatiotemporal
interaction of current sources and dipoles. Mathematical computations of LFPs allow the …

Key points The local field potential (LFP), the low‐frequency part of extracellular potentials
recorded in neural tissue, is often used for probing neural circuit activity. Interpreting the LFP …
