The activity of neurons in the brain is 'noisy' in that their firing times are random when they are firing at a given rate. This book explores randomness in the operation of brain cells showing how it can be advantageous in decision-making, in memory and in many other brain func…
The book provides a unifying computational approach to brain function which links synaptic and biophysical properties of neurons through the firing of single neurons to the properties of the noise in large connected networks of noisy neurons to the levels of functional neuroimag…
If we are to understand the brain, we must understand how the individual molecules and cells of the nervous system function and ultimately contribute to our behavior. This book provides a comprehensive and up-to-date account of what we now know and what we want to know and can r…
