We consider a conductance-based neural network inspired by the generalized Integrate and Fire model introduced by Rudolph and Destexhe in 1996. We show the existence and uniqueness of a unique Gibbs distribution characterizing spike train statistics. The corresponding Gibbs potential is explicitly computed. These results hold in the presence of a time-dependent stimulus and apply therefore to non-stationary dynamics.

Computational modeling of fear and stress responses: validation using consolidated fear and stress protocols.

Dysfunction in fear and stress responses is intrinsically linked to various neurological diseases, including anxiety disorders, depression, and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. Previous studies using in vivo models with Immediate-Extinction Deficit (IED) and Stress Enhanced Fear Learning (SEFL) protocols have provided valuable insights into these mechanisms and aided the development of new therapeutic approaches. However, assessing these dysfunctions in animal subjects using IED and SEFL protocols can cause significant pain and suffering.

Aging is associated with impaired signaling between brain regions when measured using resting-state fMRI. This age-related destabilization and desynchronization of brain networks reverses itself when the brain switches from metabolizing glucose to ketones. Here, we probe the mechanistic basis for these effects.

The nucleus HVC within the avian song system produces crystalized instructions which lead to precise, learned vocalization in zebra finches (). This paper proposes a model of the HVC neural network based on the physiological properties of individual HVC neurons, their synaptic interactions calibrated by experimental measurements, as well as the synaptic signal into this region which triggers song production. This neural network model comprises of two major neural populations in this area: neurons projecting to the nucleus RA and interneurons.

The hypothalamus senses the appetite-regulating hormones and also coordinates the metabolic function in alignment with the circadian rhythm. This alignment is essential to maintain the physiological conditions that prevent clinically important comorbidities, such as obesity or type-2 diabetes. However, a complete model of the hypothalamus that relates food intake with circadian rhythms and appetite hormones has not yet been developed.

Circuit function results from both intrinsic conductances of network neurons and the synaptic conductances that connect them. In models of neural circuits, different combinations of maximal conductances can give rise to similar activity. We compared the robustness of a neural circuit to changes in their intrinsic versus synaptic conductances.
