Neuronal avalanches are diverse and precise activity patterns that are stable for many hours in cortical slice cultures
A major goal of neuroscience is to elucidate mechanisms of cortical information processing
and storage. Previous work from our laboratory revealed that propagation of local field …

On the dynamics of the spontaneous activity in neuronal networks
Most neuronal networks, even in the absence of external stimuli, produce spontaneous
bursts of spikes separated by periods of reduced activity. The origin and functional role of …
