Neuroinformatics (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781588297204)

This book presents cutting-edge techniques for the synergistic study of neuroinformatics, thereby facilitating the efforts of discovering neuroscience through the sharing of data and the use of computational models. The book provides the scientific community with the tools and impetus for sharing their research with colleagues around the globe by offering insights, information, and compelling examples of success. This timely volume, nearly a decade and a half after the launch of the Human Brain Project, will help to refocus and enhance current research by informing both new and current Neuroinformatics practitioners. The book is conceptually divided into four sections: Neuroscience Knowledge Management, Computational Neuronal Modeling and Simulations, Imaging, and Neuroinformatics in Genetics and Neurodegenerative Diseases. The contributing authors are all leading researchers in their area of expertise.
