Neuronal Connectivity: Unleashing the Power of Collective Oscillations!

Just like a symphony, the firing patterns of neuronal populations can come together in a beautifully synchronized dance. Scientists are delving into how these collective oscillations emerge and how adding a touch of randomness can actually enhance their regularity. In this study, researchers focused on coherence resonance, which refers to the phenomenon where introducing noise […]
