In vitro neuronal models have become an important tool to study healthy and diseased
neuronal circuits. The growing interest of neuroscientists to explore the dynamics of …

Building bidirectional biointerfaces is one of the key challenges of modern engineering and
medicine, with dramatic potential impact on bioprosthetics. Two of the major challenges of …

Simultaneous multisite recording using multi-electrode arrays (MEAs) in cultured and
acutely-dissociated brain slices and other tissues is an emerging technique in the field of …

The architecture of neuron connectivity in brain networks is one of the basic mechanisms by
which to organize and sustain a particular function of the brain circuitry. There are areas of …

We investigated a mathematical model composed of a spiking neural network (SNN)
interacting with astrocytes. We analysed how information content in the form of two …

The extracellular matrix (ECM) plays an important role in use-dependent synaptic plasticity.
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is the backbone of the neural ECM, which has been shown to …

Accurate identification of bursting activity is an essential element in the characterization of
neuronal network activity. Despite this, no one technique for identifying bursts in spike trains …

Bursts of action potentials within neurons and throughout networks are believed to serve
roles in how neurons handle and store information, both in vivo and in vitro. Accurate …

When it comes to mechanisms of brain functions such as learning and memory mediated by
neural networks, existing multichannel electrophysiological detection and regulation …

Multi-electrode arrays (MEAs) can be used for noninvasive, real-time, and long-term
recording of electrophysiological activity and changes in the extracellular chemical …
