There is a vast (and rapidly growing) amount of experimental and clinical data of the nervous system at very diverse spatial scales of activity (e.g. from sub-cellular through to whole organ), with many neurological disorders characterised by oscillations in neural activity across these disparate scales. Computer modelling and the development of associated mathematical theories provide us …

By Yuichiro Hayashi, Yoshiaki Tagawa, Satoshi Yawata, Shigetada Nakanishi, Kazuo Funabiki Abstract Controlling neural activity with high spatio-temporal resolution is desired for studying how neural circuit dynamics control animal behavior. Conventional methods for manipulating neural activity, such as electrical microstimulation or pharmacological blockade, have poor spatial and/or temporal resolution. Algal protein channelrhodopsin-2 (ChR2) …
The FENS Featured Regional Meeting will take place in Prague in September 2013. The Meeting will be held in the Corinthia Hotel, a part of the Prague Congress Centre complex. The hotel is ideally located near the city centre on the Prague metro system, only a short 10 minute trip from downtown, and enjoys …
