BI 220 Michael Breakspear and Mac Shine: Dynamic Systems from Neurons to Brains
Neuroscience, Applied Mathematics, Computational Neuroscience and podcast with Mac Shine and Michael Breakspear
Brain Inspired, Hosted by Paul Middlebrooks
About
Michael Breakspear and Mac Shine examine how neural dynamics change from individual cells to whole-brain systems. Their work connects gain modulation with the balance between integration and segregation, relates it to arousal pathways, and uses coarse-graining to investigate both scale-dependent coding and shared dynamical properties across neural populations.
