Abstract: Spatiotemporal chaos collapses to either a rest state or a propagating pulse in a ring network of diffusively coupled, excitable Morris-Lecar neurons. Adding global varying synaptic coupling to the ring network reveals complex transient behavior.… read more here.

Abstract: Chemotaxis is the mechanism by which cells move in the direction of chemical gradients. The central circuit connecting basal movement and gradient sensing is unknown. Ras activation and F-actin form one coupled excitable system, which… read more here.

Abstract: Viscoelastically coupled excitable oscillators are used to model individually beating spatially separated cardiomyocytes surrounded by an extracellular matrix (ECM). We investigate how mechanical coupling via the ECM can synchronize two such oscillators with excitation contraction… read more here.
