Coupled Oscillators Model of Hyperexcitable Neuroglial Networks.

Glial populations within neuronal networks of the brain have recently gained much interest in the context of hyperexcitability and epilepsy. In this paper, we present an oscillator-based neuroglial model capable of generating Spontaneous Electrical Discharges (SEDs) in hyperexcitable conditions. The network is composed of 16 coupled Cognitive Rhythm Generators (CRGs), which are oscillator-based mathematical constructs previously described by our research team.
