Computational modeling of neuronal dynamics across scales

January 12, 2023 -- January 1, 1970

Speaker: Parul Verma, Postdoctoral Researcher, Brain Networks Laboratory (Raj Lab), Department of Radiology and Biomedical Imaging, University of California, San Francisco

Understanding neuronal dynamics, and how they are affected in neurological disorders, is one of the key problems in neuroscience today. Neuronal dynamics are not only altered in various diseases but are also instrumental in the manifestation of behavior, learning, decision-making, and our perception of the world. This talk will describe advances in multiscale theoretical and biophysically grounded tools to understand neuronal mechanisms, with models ranging in granularity from a single neuron to the entire brain.
