Description
Neuroscience is an interdisciplinary field that strives to understand the functioning of neural systems at levels ranging from biomolecules
and cells to behaviour and higher brain functions (perception, memory, cognition). Neurophysics has flourished over the past three decades,
becoming an indelible part of neuroscience, and has arguably entered its maturity. It encompasses a vast array of approaches stemming
from theoretical physics, computer science, and applied mathematics. This book provides a detailed review of this field from basic concepts
to its most recent development.
Audience
Advanced graduate students and post-doctoral fellows in mathematics and physics, practicing researchers who are moving into theoretical
neuroscience, and to neuroscientists who would like to gain deeper understanding of theory
