Brain Stimulation in The Virtual Brain

Difficulty level

Duration

This lecture focuses on higher-level simulation scenarios using stimulation protocols. We demonstrate how to build stimulation patterns in TVB, and use them in a simulation to induced activity dissipating into experimentally known resting-state networks in human and mouse brain, a well as to obtain EEG recordings reproducing empirical findings of other researchers.

  • Introduction to stimulation paradigm and stimulation techniques
  • How to model brain stimulation with TVB
    • Region-based stimulus
    • Surface-based stimulus
  • Examples of stimulated network dynamics using
    • Human brain model
    • Mouse brain model
  • Example of Transcranial Direct-Current Stimulation (tDCS)
