To understand how the brain can perform complex tasks such as perception, we have to understand how information enters the brain, how it is transformed and how it is transferred. But, how do we measure information transfer in the brain? This presentation will start with a general introduction of what mutual information is and how to measure it in an experimental setup. Next, the talk will focus on how this can be used to develop brain models at different (spatial) levels, from the microscopic single neuron level to the macroscopic network and behavioural level. How can we incorporate the knowledge about single neurons, that already show complex dynamics, into network activity and link this to behaviour?
