Informationen zum Autor Carlo Laing obtained his PhD in applied mathematics from the University of Cambridge. After post-doctoral positions in the UK, USA and Canada, he joined Massey University in Auckland, New Zealand, where he is currently a senior lecturer. His interests include nonlinear dynamical systems, particularly as applied in computational neuroscience. Gabriel Lord obtained his PhD from the University of Bath, UK. After a post-doctoral position at the University of Bristol and working for a time in industry he joined Heriot-Watt University in Edinburgh, UK. His research interests are in applied computational analysis, stochastic numerics and applications from computational neuroscience. Klappentext 0 Zusammenfassung A text for graduates and researchers in computational neuroscience and stochastic systems, concentrating on the intersection between stochastic dynamics and neuroscience, through the presentation of a series of self-contained chapters on major aspects of noise and neuroscience, each written by an expert in their particular field.
