Emergent bursting and synchrony in computer simulations of neuronal cultures

Emergent bursting and synchrony in computer simulations of neuronal cultures

Experimental studies of neuronal cultures have revealed a wide variety of spiking network activity ranging from sparse, asynchronous firing to distinct, network-wide synchronous bursting. However, the functional mechanisms driving these observed firing patterns is not well understood. In this work,...
