Title: "How Network Structure Shapes Activity Patterns in Generic Neuronal Networks"
Abstract:
The spatial and temporal patterns of activity of neurons in neuronal networks are key elements in processes as disparate as the coding of information and epileptic seizures. The mechanisms governing these functions and dysfunctions, however, are not really clear. Even less we know how transitions between beneficial and pathological synchronous activity might be mediated. In spite of obvious differences, network synchronization and state transitions can be observed reproducibly in various biological model systems. Under some conditions, their properties even appear predictable. We investigate how the statistical structure of neuronal network in vitro and in silico influences the initiation, propagation and separability of activity patterns in biological neuronal networks in vitro. I will show some of our results suggesting how structural and functional properties of such networks contribute to synchronized network activity.
