Lecture on the most important concepts in software engineering
This lecture covers modeling the neuron in silicon, modeling vision and audition and sensory fusion using a deep network.
Presentation of a simulation software for spatial model neurons and their networks designed primarily for GPUs.
Presentation of past and present neurocomputing approaches and hybrid analog/digital circuits that directly emulate the properties of neurons and synapses.
Presentation of the Brian neural simulator, where models are defined directly by their mathematical equations and code is automatically generated for each specific target.
The lecture covers a brief introduction to neuromorphic engineering, some of the neuromorphic networks that the speaker has developed, and their potential applications, particularly in machine learning.
This lecture will highlight our current understanding and recent developments in the field of neurodegenerative disease research, as well as the future of diagnostics and treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.
2nd part of the lecture. This lecture will highlight our current understanding and recent developments in the field of neurodegenerative disease research, as well as the future of diagnostics and treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.
This lecture will provide an overview of neuroimaging techniques and their clinical applications
A basic introduction to clinical presentation of schizophrenia, its etiology, and current treatment options.
The lecture focuses on rationale for employing neuroimaging methods for movement disorders
Ion channels and the movement of ions across the cell membrane.
Action potentials, and biophysics of voltage-gated ion channels.
Voltage-gating kinetics of sodium and potassium channels.
The ionic basis of the action potential, including the Hodgkin Huxley model.
Action potential initiation and propagation.
Long-range inhibitory connections in the brain, with examples from three different systems.
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 will discuss how understanding and applying simple neuroanatomical rules, one can localize the damage along the neuroaxis, the first crucial step toward making the correct clinical diagnosis and initiating treatment.
Introduction to the principal of anatomical organization of neural systems in the human brain and spinal cord that mediate sensation, integrate signals, and motivate behavior.
