Nonsmooth dynamics in spiking neuron models (2011)
Journal Article
Coombes, S., Thul, R., & Wedgwood, K. C. (2012). Nonsmooth dynamics in spiking neuron models. Physica D: Nonlinear Phenomena, 241(22), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physd.2011.05.012

Large scale studies of spiking neural networks are a key part of modern approaches to understanding the dynamics of biological neural tissue. One approach in computational neuroscience has been to consider the detailed electrophysiological propertie... Read More about Nonsmooth dynamics in spiking neuron models.

Atrial cardiomyocyte calcium signalling (2011)
Journal Article
Bootman, M. D., Smyrnias, I., Thul, R., Coombes, S., & Roderick, H. L. (2011). Atrial cardiomyocyte calcium signalling. Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research, 1813(5), 922-934. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bbamcr.2011.01.030

Whereas Ca2+ signalling in ventricular cardiomyocytes is well described, much less is known regarding the Ca2+ signals within atrial cells. This is surprising given that atrial cardiomyocytes make an important contribution to the refilling of ventric... Read More about Atrial cardiomyocyte calcium signalling.

Pulsating fronts in periodically modulated neural field models (2011)
Journal Article
Coombes, S., & Laing, C. (in press). Pulsating fronts in periodically modulated neural field models. Physical Review E, Article 011912. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevE.83.011912

We consider a coarse grained neural field model for synaptic activity in spatially extended cortical tissue that possesses an underlying periodicity in its microstructure. The model is written as an integro-differential equation with periodic modula... Read More about Pulsating fronts in periodically modulated neural field models.
