How we measure 'reads'
A 'read' is counted each time someone views a publication summary (such as the title, abstract, and list of authors), clicks on a figure, or views or downloads the full-text. Learn more

Recent work has shown that functional connectivity among cortical neurons is highly varied, with a small percentage of neurons having many more connections than others. Also, recent theoretical developments now make it possible to quantify how neurons modify information from the connections they receive. Therefore, it is now possible to investigate...
Large feedforward model network results.
All subfigures in this panel correspond to the subfigures in Fig 7. This model contained 40 neurons per layer (double the original network size), but otherwise matched the smaller model in terms of set parameters and equations. Note that the larger model produced connectivity diagrams and computation correla...
The performance of complex networks, like the brain, depends on how effectively their elements communicate. Despite the importance of communication, it is virtually
unknown how information is transferred in local cortical networks, consisting of hundreds of closely spaced neurons. To address this, it is important to record simultaneously
from hundr...
Recent studies have emphasized the importance of multiplex networks - interdependent networks with shared nodes and different types of connections - in systems primarily outside of neuroscience. Though the multiplex properties of networks are frequently not considered, most networks are actually multiplex networks and the multiplex specific feature...
Understanding the detailed circuitry of functioning neuronal networks is one of the major goals of neuroscience. Recent improvements in neuronal recording techniques have made it possible to record the spiking activity from hundreds of neurons simultaneously with sub-millisecond temporal resolution. Here we used a 512-channel multielectrode array s...
Understanding how ensembles of neurons collectively interact will be a key step in developing a mechanistic theory of cognitive processes. Recent progress in multineuron recording and analysis techniques has generated tremendous excitement over the physiology of living neural networks. One of the key developments driving this interest is a new clas...
