Book Synopsis 20 Years of Computational Neuroscience by : James M Bower
Download or read book 20 Years of Computational Neuroscience written by James M Bower and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-07-11 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When funding agencies and policy organizations consider the role of modeling and simulation in modern biology, the question is often posed, what has been accomplished ? This book will be organized around a symposium on the 20 year history of the CNS meetings, to be held as part of CNS 2010 in San Antonio Texas in July 2010. The book, like the symposium is intended to summarize progress made in Computational Neuroscience over the last 20 years while also considering current challenges in the field. As described in the table of contents, the chapter’s authors have been selected to provide wide coverage of the applications of computational techniques to a broad range of questions and model systems in neuroscience. The proposed book will include several features that establish the history of the field. For each article, its author will select an article originally appearing in a CNS conference proceedings from 15 – 20 years ago. These short (less than 6 page) articles will provide illustrations of the state of the field 20 years ago. The new articles will describe what has been learned about the subject in the following 20 years, and pose specific challenges for the next 20 years. The second historical mechanism will be the reproduction of the first 12 years of posters from the CNS meeting. These posters in and of themselves have become famous in the field (they hang in the halls of the NIH in Bethesda Maryland) and were constructed as allegories for the state and development of computational neuroscience. The posters were designed by the book’s editor, who will, for the first time, provide a written description of each poster.

Book Synopsis From Computer to Brain by : William W. Lytton
Download or read book From Computer to Brain written by William W. Lytton and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-05-08 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biology undergraduates, medical students and life-science graduate students often have limited mathematical skills. Similarly, physics, math and engineering students have little patience for the detailed facts that make up much of biological knowledge. Teaching computational neuroscience as an integrated discipline requires that both groups be brought forward onto common ground. This book does this by making ancillary material available in an appendix and providing basic explanations without becoming bogged down in unnecessary details. The book will be suitable for undergraduates and beginning graduate students taking a computational neuroscience course and also to anyone with an interest in the uses of the computer in modeling the nervous system.
Book Synopsis Fundamentals of Computational Neuroscience by : Thomas Trappenberg
Download or read book Fundamentals of Computational Neuroscience written by Thomas Trappenberg and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023-03-08 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computational neuroscience is the theoretical study of the brain to uncover the principles and mechanisms that guide the development, organization, information processing, and mental functions of the nervous system. Although not a new area, it is only recently that enough knowledge has been gathered to establish computational neuroscience as a scientific discipline in its own right. Given the complexity of the field, and its increasing importance in progressing our understanding of how the brain works, there has long been a need for an introductory text on what is often assumed to be an impenetrable topic. The new edition of Fundamentals of Computational Neuroscience build on the success and strengths of the previous editions. It introduces the theoretical foundations of neuroscience with a focus on the nature of information processing in the brain. The book covers the introduction and motivation of simplified models of neurons that are suitable for exploring information processing in large brain-like networks. Additionally, it introduces several fundamental network architectures and discusses their relevance for information processing in the brain, giving some examples of models of higher-order cognitive functions to demonstrate the advanced insight that can be gained with such studies. Each chapter starts by introducing its topic with experimental facts and conceptual questions related to the study of brain function. An additional feature is the inclusion of simple Matlab programs that can be used to explore many of the mechanisms explained in the book. An accompanying webpage includes programs for download. The book will be the essential text for anyone in the brain sciences who wants to get to grips with this topic.

Book Synopsis Computational Chemotaxis Models for Neurodegenerative Disease by : William E Schiesser
Download or read book Computational Chemotaxis Models for Neurodegenerative Disease written by William E Schiesser and published by World Scientific Publishing Company. This book was released on 2017-02-24 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mathematical model presented in this book, based on partial differential equations (PDEs) describing attractant-repellent chemotaxis, is offered for a quantitative analysis of neurodegenerative disease (ND), e.g., Alzheimer's disease (AD). The model is a representation of basic phenomena (mechanisms) for diffusive transport and biochemical kinetics that provides the spatiotemporal distribution of components which could explain the evolution of ND, and is offered with the intended purpose of providing a small step toward the understanding, and possible treatment of ND. The format and emphasis of the presentation is based on the following elements: A statement of the PDE system, including initial conditions (ICs), boundary conditions (BCs) and the model parameters.Algorithms for the calculation of numerical solutions of the PDE system with a minimum of mathematical formality.A set of R routines for the calculation of numerical solutions, including a detailed explanation of all of the sections of the code. The R routines can be executed after a straightforward download of R, an open-source scientific computing system available from the Internet.Presentation of the numerical solutions, particularly in graphical (plotted) format to enhance the visualization of the solution.Summary and conclusions concerning the principal results from the model that might serve as the basis for a next step in the modeling of ND. In other words, a methodology for numerical PDE modeling is presented that is flexible, open ended and readily implemented on modest computers. If the reader is interested in an alternate model, it might possibly be implemented by: (1) modifying and/or extending the current model (for example, by adding terms to the PDEs or adding additional PDEs), or (2) using the reported routines as a prototype for the model of interest. These suggestions illustrate an important feature of computer-based modeling, that is, the readily available procedure of numerically experimenting with a model. The current model is offered as only a first step toward the resolution of this urgent medical problem. Request Inspection Copy
