• Computational approach to dendritic spine taxonomy and shape transition analysis 

      Bokota, Grzegorz; Magnowska, Marta; Kusmierczyk, Tomasz; Lukasik, Michal; Roszkowska, Matylda; Piewczynski, Dariusz (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)
      The common approach in morphological analysis of dendritic spines of mammalian neuronal cells is to categorize spines into subpopulations based on whether they are stubby, mushroom, thin, or filopodia shaped. The corresponding ...
    • Criticality, Connectivity, and Neural Disorder: A Multifaceted Approach to Neural Computation 

      Heiney, Kristine; Huse Ramstad, Ola; Fiskum, Vegard; Christiansen, Nicholas; Sandvig, Axel; Nichele, Stefano; Sandvig, Ioanna (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      It has been hypothesized that the brain optimizes its capacity for computation by self-organizing to a critical point. The dynamical state of criticality is achieved by striking a balance such that activity can effectively ...
