内容説明
This book concentrates on the organizational level of neurons and neuronal networks under the unifying theme "The Self-Organizing Brain - From Growth Cones to Functional Networks". Such a theme is attractive because it incorporates all phases in the emergence of complexity and (adaptive) organization, as well as involving processes that remain operative in the mature state.The order of the sections follows successive levels of organization from neuronal growth cones, neurite formation, neuronal morphology and signal processing to network development, network dynamics and, finally, to the formation of functional circuits.

List of contributors. Preface. Acknowledgements. Section I - Introduction. 1. Reciprocity of structure-function relations in developing neural networks: the Odyssey of a self-organizing brain through research fads, fallacies and prospects.

Filopodia as detectors of environmental cues: signal integration through changes in growth cone calcium levels. 4. Microtubule transport and assembly cooperate to generate the microtubule assay of growing axons. 5. Initial tract formation in the vertebrate brain. 6. Dynamic mechanisms of neuronal outgrowth. 7. Geometrical and topological characteristics in the dendritic development of cortical pyramidal and non-pyramidal neurons. B. Morphology, Excitability and Signal Processing. 8. Electrotonic properties of passive dendritic trees - effect of dendritic topology. 9. Exploring the computational capabilities of single neurons by continuous cable modelling. 10. Development of voltage-dependent and ligand-gated channels in excitable membranes. 11. Theoretical models for describing neural signal transduction. 12.
