The CA1 region of the hippocampus is one most studied regions rodent brain, thought to play an important role in cognitive functions such as memory and spatial navigation. Despite a wealth experimental data on its structure function, it has been challenging integrate information obtained from diverse approaches. To address this challenge, we present community-based, full-scale silico model rat that integrates broad range data, synapse network, including reconstruction principal afferents,...

Neuromodulators, such as acetylcholine (ACh), control information processing in neural microcircuits by regulating neuronal and synaptic physiology. Computational models simulations enable predictions on the potential role of ACh reconfiguring network activity. As a prelude into investigating how cellular effects collectively influence emergent dynamics, we developed data-driven framework incorporating phenomenological physiology cholinergic modulation neocortical cells synapses. The...
Abstract The vast majority of cortical synapses are found in the neuropil which is implicated multiple and diverse functions underlying brain computation. Unraveling organizing principles requires an intricate characterization synaptic connections established by excitatory inhibitory axon terminals, intrinsic extrinsic origin from ascending projections that govern function microcircuits through release neuromodulators either point-to-point chemical or diffuse volume transmission (VT). Even...
