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…

Studies with bacteria and other systems suggest that the omega-3 fatty acid DHA confers great benefits to neurons in maximizing both speed of neural impulses and energy efficiency. Unfortunately, studies also show that DHA's ease of oxidation damages membrane integrity. Explorin…

This is a study of the methods for using the electrophysical techniques for monitoring concurrent activity of ensembles of single neurons. Each chapter describes the implementation of a particular technique or experimental paradigm using simultaneous multiple electrode recording…
