In a new paper in Cerebral Cortex, we show that to produce a memory neurons need to coordinate, similarly to musicians in an orchestra who want to play a song. For neurons, coordination is achieved via the electric field they collectively produce. Read also the MIT news piece here.

Brain waves carry information. Our new “Cytoelectric Coupling” hypothesis posits that fluctuating electric fields optimize brain network efficiency and stability by shaping the brain’s molecular infrastructure. Read the news piece from MIT on our paper  here.

In a paper accepted in Progress in Neurobiology, we suggest that the electric fields generated by neurons are causal down to the level of the cytoskeleton. Brain waves and emerging electric fields contain information the brain is processing. This information propagates to the neuron level, affecting...

In this episode of Brain Uncovered Podcast with Aya Tarabeine, we discussed the vital role mathematics plays in the study of the brain, how computational modeling can provide us with a deeper understanding of brain function, and how neural networks can be simulated and analyzed through mathematical ...

New paper on Depression Biomarkers. Click here for full text. Abstract below.

A major difficulty with treating psychiatric disorders is their heterogeneity: different neural causes can lead to the same phenotype. To address this, we propose describing the under...
