Title: Testing the stability of the critical network state in cerebral cortex

Location:
Small lecture hall B01.019
Großhaderner Str. 2
82152 Martinsried

Host: Harald Luksch

Abstract:
Accumulating evidence supports the hypothesis that parts of cerebral cortex operate near dynamic criticality. This raises questions as to the stability of the network state when the neural circuits are being perturbed. I will present experiments designed to address this stability question in the context of (i) visual deprivation acting as a homeostatic challenge, (ii) neural reorganization during motor learning, and (iii) adaptation to sensory inputs.
