In this lesson, the simulation of a virtual epileptic patient is presented as an example of advanced brain simulation as a translational approach to deliver improved clinical results. You will learn about the fundamentals of epilepsy, as well as the concepts underlying epilepsy simulation. By using an iPython notebook, the detailed process of this approach is explained step by step. In the end, you are able to perform simple epilepsy simulations your own.

In this lesson you will learn how to simulate seizure events and epilepsy in The Virtual Brain. We will look at the paper On the Nature of Seizure Dynamics, which describes a new local model called the Epileptor, and apply this same model in The Virtual Brain. This is part 1 of 2 in a series explaining how to use the Epileptor. In this part, we focus on setting up the parameters.

This lecture covers the description and characterization of an input-output relationship in a information-theoretic context. 

This lesson is part 1 of 2 of a tutorial on statistical models for neural data.

This lesson is part 2 of 2 of a tutorial on statistical models for neural data.

From the retina to the superior colliculus, the lateral geniculate nucleus into primary visual cortex and beyond, this lecture gives a tour of the mammalian visual system highlighting the Nobel-prize winning discoveries of Hubel & Wiesel.

From Universal Turing Machines to McCulloch-Pitts and Hopfield associative memory networks, this lecture explains what is meant by computation.

In this lesson you will learn about ion channels and the movement of ions across the cell membrane, one of the key mechanisms underlying neuronal communication. 

This lecture covers visualizing extracellular neurotransmitter dynamics

This lecture consists of the second half of the introduction to signal transduction, here focusing on cell receptors and signalling cascades.

In this lesson, you will learn about GABAergic interneurons and local inhibition on the circuit level.

This lecture gives an introduction to the types of glial cells, homeostasis (influence of cerebral blood flow and influence on neurons), insulation and protection of axons (myelin sheath; nodes of Ranvier), microglia and reactions of the CNS to injury.

This lecture covers the history of behaviorism and the ultimate challenge to behaviorism. 

This lecture covers various learning theories.

How does the brain learn? This lecture discusses the roles of development and adult plasticity in shaping functional connectivity.

This lesson discusses both state-of-the-art detection and prevention schema in working with neurodegenerative diseases. 

This lesson provides an overview of how to construct computational pipelines for neurophysiological data using DataJoint.

This lesson covers the ionic basis of the action potential, including the Hodgkin-Huxley model. 

This lesson provides an introduction to the myriad forms of cellular mechanisms whicn underpin healthy brain function and communication. 

In this lesson you will learn about the ionic basis of the action potential, including the Hodgkin-Huxley model.
