Computational modeling of sensory circuitry in the nucleus tractus solitarii from arterial baroreceptor and somatosensory inputs
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
Baroreflex function regulates the arterial blood pressure in our body. The baroreflex is considered to be an integrated negative feedback system. NTS (Nucleus tractus solitarius) is one of key subsystems in this baroreflex ...
Computational neural modeling at the cellular and network levels: two case studies
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
Computational neuroscience provides tools to abstract and generalize principles of neuronal functions using mathematics, with applicability to the entire neuroscience spectrum. Problems at two levels of the neuroscience ...
Modeling and analysis of nonlinear biological systems
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] This dissertation focuses on the modeling and analysis of a set of biological phenomenon at a cellular (Part I) and systems (Part II) level. In Part ...
Development of a two-dimensional human thermal model for EVA applications
(University of Missouri-Columbia, 2002)
The human thermoregulatory system, with its active and passive components, is difficult to model due to nonlinearities, complex interactions, and a lack of understanding of many of the active thermoregulatory mechanisms. ...
Computational modeling of the fear circuit : a system approach to understand anxiety and stress disorder
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
Computational models are becoming increasingly important to systems neuroscience. In fear learning, although there have been a few attempts at modeling emotional learning and memory in the past, most were limited to ...
Specific bio-modeling and analysis techniques at cellular and systems level
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
Modeling approaches are developed for two different levels, cellular (Part I) and systems (Part II), and used to develop insights into system performance. PART I consists of three chapters focusing on computational ...
Computational neural models at molecular, cellular and behavioral levels : three case studies
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
Biological findings from molecular, cellular and behavior levels can be difficult to understand functions. Computational tools and systems concepts facilitate integration of information across levels to further understanding ...
