Neurofrontiers<p>A few weeks ago, I shared a differential equations tutorial for beginners, written from the perspective of a neuroscientist who's had to grapple with the computational part. Following up on that, I've now tackled the first real beast encountered by most computational neuroscience students: the Hodgkin-Huxley model. </p><p>While remaining incredibly elegant to this day, this model is also a mathematically dense system of equations that can overwhelm and discourage beginners, especially those with non-mathematical backgrounds. Similar to the first tutorial, I've tried to build intuition step-by-step, starting with a simple RC circuit, layering in Na⁺ and K⁺ channels, and ending with the full spike-generation story. </p><p>Feedback is welcome, especially from fellow non-math converts.<br><a href="https://neurofrontiers.blog/building-a-virtual-neuron-2/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">neurofrontiers.blog/building-a</span><span class="invisible">-virtual-neuron-2/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://neuromatch.social/tags/ComputationalNeuroscience" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ComputationalNeuroscience</span></a> <a href="https://neuromatch.social/tags/Python" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Python</span></a> <a href="https://neuromatch.social/tags/hodgkinHuxleyModel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>hodgkinHuxleyModel</span></a> <a href="https://neuromatch.social/tags/math" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>math</span></a> <a href="https://neuromatch.social/tags/biophysics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>biophysics</span></a> </p><p>From: <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://neuromatch.social/@neurofrontiers" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>neurofrontiers</span></a></span><br><a href="https://neuromatch.social/@neurofrontiers/114150087773204813" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">neuromatch.social/@neurofronti</span><span class="invisible">ers/114150087773204813</span></a></p>

El Duvelle Neuro<p>I keep going back to this question about <a href="https://neuromatch.social/tags/TemporalCreditAssignment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TemporalCreditAssignment</span></a> and <a href="https://neuromatch.social/tags/HippocampalReplay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HippocampalReplay</span></a>:<br>As an "agent" you want to learn the value of places and which places are likely to lead to reward;</p><p>-1) if a place leads to higher than expected reward, you'll want to propagate back the reward info from the reward throughout the places that led to the reward. If replay does that you should see an increase of replay at a new reward site and the replay sequences should start at the reward and reflect what you just did to reach it. Right?</p><p>-2) if a place leads to lower than expected reward, you'll also want to propagate that lowered value, pretty much in the same way, so if replay does that you should see a similar replay rate and content for increased OR decreased reward sites. Right?</p><p>-3) if a place has had unchanged reward for a while and you're just in exploitation mode (just going there again and again because you know that's the best place to go to in the environment) then you shouldn't need to update anything and replay rate should be quite low at that unchanged reward side. Right?</p><p>That's not at all what replay is doing IRL, so does that mean replay is not used for temporal credit assignment?

Neurofrontiers<p>When I transitioned from cognitive to computational neuroscience, I found myself in a bit of a bind. I had learned calculus, but I had progressed little beyond pattern recognition: I knew which rules to apply to find solutions to which equations, but the equations themselves lacked any sort of real meaning for me. </p><p>So I struggled with understanding how formulas could be implemented in code and why the code I was reading could be described by those formulas. Resources explaining math “for neuroscientists” were unfortunately quite useless for me, because they usually presented the necessary equations for describing various neural systems, assuming the presence of that basic understanding/intuition I lacked. </p><p>Of course, I figured things out eventually (otherwise I wouldn’t be writing about it), but I’m 85% sure I’m not the only one who’s ever struggled with this, and so I wrote the tutorial I wish I could’ve had. If you’re in a similar position, I hope you’ll find it useful. And if not, maybe it helps you get a glimpse into the struggles of the non-math people in your life. Either way, it has cats.</p><p><a href="https://neurofrontiers.blog/building-a-virtual-neuron-1/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">neurofrontiers.blog/building-a</span><span class="invisible">-virtual-neuron-1/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://neuromatch.social/tags/neuroscience" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>neuroscience</span></a> <a href="https://neuromatch.social/tags/math" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>math</span></a> <a href="https://neuromatch.social/tags/ComputationalNeuroscience" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ComputationalNeuroscience</span></a> <a href="https://neuromatch.social/tags/tutorial" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>tutorial</span></a> <a href="https://neuromatch.social/tags/academia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>academia</span></a></p>

Dan Goodman<p>What's the right way to think about modularity in the brain? This devilish 😈 question is a big part of my research now, and it started with this paper with <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://neuromatch.social/@GabrielBena" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>GabrielBena</span></a></span> finally published after the first preprint in 2021! </p><p><a href="https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-024-55188-9" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">nature.com/articles/s41467-024</span><span class="invisible">-55188-9</span></a></p><p>We know the brain is physically structured into distinct areas ("modules"?). We also know that some of these have specialised function. But is there a necessary connection between these two statements? What is the relationship - if any - between 'structural' and 'functional' modularity?</p><p>TLDR if you don't want to read the rest: there is no necessary relationship between the two, although when resources are tight, functional modularity is more likely to arise when there's structural modularity. We also found that functional modularity can change over time!
