Area of Science:

  • Computational neuroscience
  • Cognitive neuroscience
  • Systems neuroscience

Background:

  • The frontal lobe system, comprising the cortex, basal ganglia, and thalamus, is crucial for temporal sequence processing.
  • Understanding the neural mechanisms of sequence storage and generation is a key challenge in neuroscience.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and analyze hard-wired simulations of temporal sequence storage and generation.
  • To model the multi-modular network dynamics of the frontal lobe system.
  • To investigate the mathematical underpinnings of these neural processes using bifurcation theory.

Main Methods:

  • Construction of hard-wired simulations of neural networks.
  • Modeling multi-modular networks based on the frontal lobe system.
