Interactions among neurons can take place in a wide variety of forms. It is the goal of this thesis to investigate the properties and implications of a number of these interactions that we believe are relevant for information processing in the brain. Neuro ...
Micro-electrode array (MEA) technology has been exploited as a powerful tool for providing distributed information on learning, memory and information processing in cultured neuronal tissue, enabling an experimental perspective from the single cell level u ...
Neurexins (NRXNs) are synaptic cell adhesion molecules having essential roles in the assembly and maturation of synapses into fully functional units. Immunocytochemical and electrophysiological studies have shown that specific binding across the synaptic c ...

Statistical models of neural activity are at the core of the field of modern computational neuroscience. The activity of single neurons has been modeled to successfully explain dependencies of neural dynamics to its own spiking history, to external stimuli ...
We applied microelectrode array (MEA) recordings to study the generation and propagation of epileptform activity in various connected regions of cortico-hippocampal slices obtained from SynapsinI/II/III knockout (TKO) mice and the effects of the synaptic v ...
Generalized Linear Models (GLMs) are an increasingly popular framework for modeling neural spike trains. They have been linked to the theory of stochastic point processes and researchers have used this relation to assess goodness-of-fit using methods from ...
Schizophrenia is a devastating psychiatric illness characterized by deterioration of cognitive and emotional processing. It has been hypothesized that aberrant cortical connectivity is implicated in the disease (Friston, 1998), yet previous studies of func ...
The coordinated, collective spiking activity of neuronal populations encodes and processes information. One approach towards understanding such population based computation is to fit statistical models to simultaneously recorded spike trains and use these ...
The rich dynamical nature of neurons poses major conceptual and technical challenges for unraveling their nonlinear membrane properties. Traditionally, various current waveforms have been injected at the soma to probe neuron dynamics, but the rationale for ...
Attending to an object can strongly modulate the neural processing of this object. Using average EEG, it was shown that small differences in the focus of attention yield large and long lasting changes in brain dynamics (Plomp et al, 2009). Here, we show th ...
