General description : The class aims at describing modern modeling in neuroscience from the molecular, cellular to the Brain level with medical application.
We will start by introducing stochastic models to analyze large amount of single particle trajectories obtained by superresolution microscopy. We will present mean-field models of neurons, synapses, glial cells, calcium dynamics, learning and memory and extraction of motifs from time series.
The class continues with modeling and analysis of neural network, bursting modeling, model of recurrent bursting in electrophysiology traces and Up-Down state.
Finally, we will introduce Model-Machine-learning method to predict Brain behavior from EEG time series : applications to coma and anesthesia

The goal of the class : is to present modeling approach, stochastics analysis, signal processing and analysis to extract predictive features based on physiology. The class is ideal for engineers, mathematicians, physicists, theoretical chemists or computer scientists.
This class (in english) will use the Holcman’s Cambridge lecture and e-class presented in http://bionewmetrics.org/stochastic-processes-and-applications-to-modeling-cellular-microdomains/#more-146 and Youtube
