Description

Dynamical systems provide a powerful framework for understanding neural excitability and action potential generation. This presentation explores how both the Morris-Lecar and Hodgkin-Huxley models capture neural dynamics. Analyzing their mathematical structure gives insight into the mechanisms underlying neuronal activity. These models highlight the strengths and limitations of describing real-word neuronal behavior.

Comments

The faculty mentor for this project was Brenda Edmonds, Mathematics.
