Topic: conductance-based model

Brain information processing is shaped by fluctuations in neuronal rhythmic activities, each defining distinctive brain states. Switches in brain states during wake-sleep cycle are described at the network level, by a neuronal population shift from active to oscillatory state. At the cellular level, neurons switch from tonic to burst. This switch is organized thanks to neuromodulators. They refer to signaling molecules that induce reversible changes in functional properties of neurons or synapses. Simultaneously, learning and memory are attributed to the ability of neurons to modify their conn
