Lecture
This lecture discusses spontaneous network activity in the brain, the simulation of neural networks, and the importance of in-vitro and in-vivo simulations. It covers the diversity of neurons, microcircuit anatomy, and synaptic diversity. The instructor explains the setup of simulations, sensitivity analysis, and the reasons for simulating networks. The lecture emphasizes the need for replicating simulations, altering parameters, and validating network models. It also explores the differences between in-vitro and in-vivo conditions, focusing on the challenges and strategies for accurate network simulations.
