Plastic neural network with transmission delays promotes equivalence between function and structure
P. R. Protachevicz, F. S. Borges, A. M. Batista +4
The brain is formed by cortical regions that are associated with different cognitive functions. Neurons within the same region are more likely to connect than neurons in distinct r…
Short-term and spike-timing-dependent plasticities facilitate the formation of modular neural networks
Ewandson L. Lameu, Fernando S. Borges, Kelly C. Iarosz +4
The brain has the phenomenal ability to reorganize itself by forming new connections among neurons and by pruning others. The so-called neural or brain plasticity facilitates the m…
Self-sustained activity of low firing rate in balanced networks
Fernando Borges, Paulo Protachevicz, Rodrigo Pena +10
Self-sustained activity in the brain is observed in the absence of external stimuli and contributes to signal propagation, neural coding, and dynamic stability. It also plays an im…
Alterations in brain connectivity due to plasticity and synaptic delay
E. L. Lameu, E. E. N. Macau, F. S. Borges +6
Brain plasticity refers to brain's ability to change neuronal connections, as a result of environmental stimuli, new experiences, or damage. In this work, we study the effects of t…
Inference of topology and the nature of synapses, and the flow of information in neuronal networks
F. S. Borges, E. L. Lameu, K. C. Iarosz +6
The characterisation of neuronal connectivity is one of the most important matters in neuroscience. In this work, we show that a recently proposed informational quantity, the causa…
Synaptic Plasticity and Spike Synchronisation in Neuronal Networks
Rafael R. Borges, Fernando S. Borges, Ewandson L. Lameu +8
Brain plasticity, also known as neuroplasticity, is a fundamental mechanism of neuronal adaptation in response to changes in the environment or due to brain injury. In this review,…
