Mean-Field Models for EEG/MEG: From Oscillations to Waves (2021)
Journal Article
Byrne, Á., Ross, J., Nicks, R., & Coombes, S. (2022). Mean-Field Models for EEG/MEG: From Oscillations to Waves. Brain Topography, 35, 36–53. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10548-021-00842-4

Neural mass models have been used since the 1970s to model the coarse-grained activity of large populations of neurons. They have proven especially fruitful for understanding brain rhythms. However, although motivated by neurobiological consideration... Read More about Mean-Field Models for EEG/MEG: From Oscillations to Waves.

Understanding sensory induced hallucinations: From neural fields to amplitude equations (2021)
Journal Article
Nicks, R., Cocks, A., Avitabile, D., Johnston, A., & Coombes, S. (2021). Understanding sensory induced hallucinations: From neural fields to amplitude equations. SIAM Journal on Applied Dynamical Systems, 20(4), 1683-1714. https://doi.org/10.1137/20M1366885

Explorations of visual hallucinations, and in particular those of Billock and Tsou [V. A. Billock and B. H. Tsou, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 104 (2007), pp. 8490-8495], show that annular rings with a background flicker can induce visual hallucinatio...
