Computational Modelling of the Brain: Modelling Approaches to Cells, Circuits and Networks

This volume offers an up-to-date overview of essential concepts and modern approaches to computational modelling, including the use of experimental techniques related to or directly inspired by them. The book introduces, at increasing levels of complexity and with the non-specialist in mind, state-of-the-art topics ranging from single-cell and molecular descriptions to circuits and networks.

Four major themes are covered, including subcellular modelling of ion channels and signalling pathway...
