Computational Neuroscience
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the Second International Workshop of Computational Neuroscience, held in São João Del-Rei, Brazil, in September 2019. The 17 full papers and 3 short papers presented have been thoroughly reviewed and selected from 45 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections: artificial intelligence, machine learning, and related topics; complex systems and complex networks; computational neuroscience of learning and memory; neural signal processing; software and hardware implementations in neuroscience; brain-machine interfaces and neurostimulation; and seizure prediction.
Computational Neuroscience
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third Latin American Workshop, LAWCN 2021, held in Sao Luis do Maranhao, Brazil, during December 8–10, 2021. The 13 full papers and 3 short papers included in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 27 submissions. They were organized in topical sections as follows: Interdisciplinary applications of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML); AI and ML applied to robotics; AI and ML applied to biomedical sciences; Health issues and computational neuroscience; Software and hardware implementations in neuroscience; and Neuroengineering – science and technology.
Neuromodulation Using Spatiotemporally Complex Patterns
Recent studies have highlighted that stimulation of the nervous system with spatiotemporal patterns may engage the nervous system in fundamentally different ways than can be achieved with conventional single-frequency stimulation. Coordinated Reset deep brain stimulation (DBS) may affect synaptic plasticity and result in long-lasting (after stimulation is turned off) effects. Spatio-temporal paired pulse stimulation can be used to induce spike timing dependent strengthening or weakening of synaptic connections between brain regions for therapeutic purposes. Burst stimulation may enable cell-type specific targeting, as recently shown in rodent models of DBS for Parkinson’s Disease and in thalamic DBS in humans. Burst stimulation has also shown promise in spinal cord for chronic pain and vagus nerve stimulation for cardiac applications. And multiple hierarchies of temporal patterning may have their own unique effect on the nervous system as evidenced by data on intermittent theta-burst transcranial magnetic stimulation for the control of depression.

The Oracle of Night
*THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER* What is a dream? Why do we dream? How do our bodies and minds use dreams? These questions are the starting point for this unprecedented, astonishing study of the role and significance of dreams, from the beginning of human history. An investigation on the grand scale, encompassing literature, anthropology, religion, and science, it articulates the essential place dreams occupy in human culture, and how they functioned as the catalyst that compelled us to transform our earthly habitat into a human world. From the earliest cave paintings - where the author finds a key to humankind's first dreams, which contributed to our capacity to perceive past and future - to ...
L'oracolo della notte
Gli antichi si facevano guidare dai sogni. Oggi, invece, con il regno di Morfeo abbiamo poca dimestichezza. Tutti sanno cosa sia un sogno, ma in pochi se ne ricordano al risveglio. Cosa succede nella nostra mente quando entriamo in questa singolare dimensione di fantasia e di metafora? Qual è la chiave per estrarre un significato dai suoi numerosi simboli, così densi di dettagli e di indizi? Di certo, nessuno può immergersi nei sotterranei della coscienza senza aver vissuto: la materia dell’attività onirica è tutta nei ricordi. Ma la logica degli eventi è fluida e vaga. E quindi: cosa sono i sogni? A cosa servono? Sidarta Ribeiro si rivolge a uno dei grandi rompicapi dell’umanità ...
El oráculo de la noche
Una fascinante historia de la mente humana a través del hilo conductor del sueño. A fin de cuentas, ¿qué es un sueño? ¿Por qué soñamos? Y, más interesante aún, ¿para qué soñamos? ¿Cómo podemos extraer sentido de sus variados símbolos, tan llenos de detalles y significados? En este libro amplio y multidisciplinario, el reconocido neurocientífico especialista en sueños Sidarta Ribeiro se basa en conocimientos históricos, antropológicos, psicoanalíticos y literarios, además de en las referencias más actualizadas de la biología molecular, la neurofisiología y la medicina, para responder a estas y muchas otras preguntas sobre uno de los grandes enigmas de la humanidad. Reseña: «El autor aborda una teoría general del sueño que engloba pasado y futuro, y explica la función onírica como una herramienta crucial para sobrevivir al presente.» Correio Braziliense
Minor Detail
From a young Palestinian writer comes this compelling look at the Israel/Palestine conflict, from both the perspective of an Israeli soldier in 1949 as well as that of a young Palestinian woman.
