Rodent somatosensory thalamocortical circuitry: Neurons, synapses, and connectivity

Christian O'Reilly, Elisabetta Iavarone, Jane Yi

As our understanding of the thalamocortical system deepens, the questions we face become more complex. Their investigation requires the adoption of novel experimental approaches complemented with increasingly sophisticated computational modeling. In this r ...

A computational biophysical model of thalamic and reticular nucleus microcircuitry: from neurons to emergent network dynamics

Elisabetta Iavarone

The thalamus, once believed to be a simple relay station between the body periphery and the neocortex, has started to be recognized as a key player in higher-order functions, such as attention. It participates in the transition between brain states, such a ...

A Text Mining Pipeline Using Active and Deep Learning Aimed at Curating Information in Computational Neuroscience

Christian O'Reilly, Elisabetta Iavarone

The curation of neuroscience entities is crucial to ongoing efforts in neuroinformatics and computational neuroscience, such as those being deployed in the context of continuing large-scale brain modelling projects. However, manually sifting through thousa ...

Experimentally-constrained biophysical models of tonic and burst firing modes in thalamocortical neurons

Henry Markram, Sean Lewis Hill, Ying Shi, Werner Alfons Hilda Van Geit, Christian O'Reilly, Christian Andreas Rössert, Elisabetta Iavarone, Bas-Jan Zandt, Jane Yi

Somatosensory thalamocortical (TC) neurons from the ventrobasal (VB) thalamus are central components in the flow of sensory information between the periphery and the cerebral cortex, and participate in the dynamic regulation of thalamocortical states inclu ...

A Framework for Collaborative Curation of Neuroscientific Literature

Sean Lewis Hill, Elisabetta Iavarone, Christian O'Reilly

Large models of complex neuronal circuits require specifying numerous parameters, with values that often need to be extracted from the literature, a tedious and error-prone process. To help establishing shareable curated corpora of annotations, we have dev ...
