1. | Gap-junction coupled network activity depends on coupled dendrites diameter (Gansert et al. 2007) | |
"... We have previously shown that the amplitude of electrical signals propagating across gap-junctionally coupled passive cables is maximized at a unique diameter. This suggests that threshold-dependent signals may propagate through gap junctions for a finite range of diameters around this optimal value. Here we examine the diameter dependence of action potential propagation across model networks of dendro-dendritically coupled neurons. The neurons in these models have passive soma and dendrites and an action potential-generating axon. We show that propagation of action potentials across gap junctions occurs only over a finite range of dendritic diameters and that propagation delay depends on this diameter. ...".

2. | Neural mass model of spindle generation in the isolated thalamus (Schellenberger Costa et al. 2016) | |
The model generates different oscillatory patterns in the thalamus, including delta and spindle band oscillations. | ||
3. | Neural mass model of the neocortex under sleep regulation (Costa et al 2016) | |
This model generates typical human EEG patterns of sleep stages N2/N3 as well as wakefulness and REM. It further contains a sleep regulatory component, that lets the model transition between those stages independently | ||
4. | Neural mass model of the sleeping thalamocortical system (Schellenberger Costa et al 2016) | |
This paper generates typical human EEG data of sleep stages N2/N3 as well as wakefulness and REM sleep. |
