Dynamical Systems as Mechanistic, Explanatory Models in Neuroscience

Watch a conference talk exploring how dynamical systems serve as mechanistic and explanatory models in neuroscience, delivered by Stanford University's William Newsome at Chapman University's "Theorizing and Modeling in Neuroscience" conference. Delve into the intersection of mathematical modeling and neuroscientific understanding through this hour-long presentation, which was part of a broader interdisciplinary conference organized by the Schmid College of Science and Technology, D.Sc. Program in Mathematics, Philosophy, and Physics, Crean College of Health and Behavioral Sciences, and the Institute for Interdisciplinary Brain and Behavioral Sciences. Gain insights into how dynamical systems theory can be applied to explain neural mechanisms and advance our understanding of brain function.
