An Introductory Course in Computational Neuroscience

Focusing on the intersection of neuroscience and computer modeling, this textbook offers an accessible introduction for students with limited math and coding experience. It features computer tutorials that enable readers to simulate and analyze neural behavior using freely available Matlab code. Through these models, students explore the dynamics of individual neurons and their interactions within circuits, uncovering phenomena such as oscillations, multistability, and chaos, and their implications for brain function.
