The emergence of second-generation neural mass models
Neural mass models provide a physiologically grounded description of the average synaptic activity and firing rate of neural populations. First developed in the 1970s, these models are increasingly used for both local and whole-brain modeling in, e.g., epilepsy (Wendling et…
Home Application of Non-invasive Neuromodulation: How does this work?
The appearance of new disruptive technology and the advent of telemedicine are bringing a new era to medical treatments. Telemedicine comes from the Greek prefix “tele” that means “distance “and the Latin verb “mederi” that means “to heal”. Therefore, the…
Eureka!: what is really going on in the brain?
When Archimedes, one of the greatest scientists and mathematicians of Ancient Greece, was tasked with determining whether his king’s crown was made of pure gold, he was stumped. He decided to ponder this task over a warm bath, as one…
