Exact neural mass model for synaptic-based working memory
Halgurd Taher, Alessandro Torcini, Simona Olmi
A synaptic theory of Working Memory (WM) has been developed in the last decade as a possible alternative to the persistent spiking paradigm. In this context, we have developed a ne…
Theta-nested gamma oscillations in next generation neural mass models
Marco Segneri, Hongjie Bi, Simona Olmi +1
Theta-nested gamma oscillations have been reported in many areas of the brain and are believed to represent a fundamental mechanism to transfer information across spatial and tempo…
Controlling seizure propagation in large-scale brain networks
Simona Olmi, Spase Petkoski, Maxime Guye +2
Information transmission in the human brain is a fundamentally dynamic network process. In partial epilepsy, this process is perturbed and highly synchronous seizures originate in…
Exact firing time statistics of neurons driven by discrete inhibitory noise
Simona Olmi, David Angulo-Garcia, Alberto Imparato +1
Neurons in the intact brain receive a continuous and irregular synaptic bombardment from excitatory and inhibitory pre-synaptic neurons, which determines the firing activity of the…
Death and rebirth of neural activity in sparse inhibitory networks
David Angulo-Garcia, Stefano Luccioli, Simona Olmi +1
In this paper, we clarify the mechanisms underlying a general phenomenon present in pulse-coupled heterogeneous inhibitory networks: inhibition can induce not only suppression of t…
