Abstract:

A common experimental method in neuroscience involves the recording of the activity of a single neuron. However, studies of the functional connectivity of several neurons and their behavior require the simultaneous recording of their activity. Current technology permits such recordings for over a hundred neurons. These recordings yield large data sets that present challenging problems in their analysis and their interpretation. In this talk, we describe recent developments in techniques for detecting functional connections between neurons and describing the nature of those connections.
