Exotic Phenomena in Neuronal Dynamics
8:15 AM - 10:15 AM
Room: Superior B
The meeting is intended to discuss nonlinear phenomena that occur in neuronal models and networks, time continuous and discrete. This includes nontrivial bifurcations and transitions between tonic spiking and bursting activities, their mechanisms of regulation, clustering and synchronization.
