Unique applications of cultured neuronal networks in pharmacology, toxicology, and basic neuroscience
… research explored the capabilities of neuronal networks grown on substrate integrated microelectrode arrays in vitro with emphasis on utilizing such preparations in three specific application domains: pharmacology and drug development, biosensors and neurotoxicology, and the study of burst and …

Investigating Anatomical and Neurochemical Topology of the Mammalian Suprachiasmatic Nucleus
… and connectivity to one another. It is through emergent network properties that the diversity of cells is able to synchronise cell-autonomous rhythms and generate an ensemble signal that is conveyed to local clocks in peripheral tissues and brain areas. Whilst previous research has focused on …

Mathematical modeling of pathways involved in cell cycle regulation and differentiation
… players of these control systems, their emergent network dynamics, and, ultimately, the overall contribution to cellular physiology. In this dissertation, we have developed a mathematical framework to understand two such cellular systems: an early checkpoint (START) in the budding yeast …

A Meta-Synthesis of Emergency Network Management Strategies and Analysis of Hurricane Katrina
… management can be integrated into strategies for network management in emergencies. I used the term strategies in a much more generalized way to capture the idea of managerial/behavioral skills, plans, and insights for emergency management. The meta-synthesis was conducted from a keyword search, …

A neurophysiological and proteomic study of cognitive enhancing strategies
… of putatively cognitive enhancing drugs on emergent network oscillatory activities in hippocampal slices are investigated. The effect of an enriched environment, which causes an improvement in cognitive function, on the expression level of proteins in the hippocampus is also investigated. …

TUNING AND TESTING DEVELOPING NEURAL NETWORKS
In vitro neural networks are powerful model systems that can help bridge the gap between single-cell properties and emergent network behaviors. This allows for the linking of cell-scale properties to network behavior, providing an important step in connecting individual cellular actions to the …
