Abstract
The pathology of Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by modified behavior of neuronal networks in the basal ganglia after depletion of dopamine. PD states show bursting neural activity and high synchronization among neurons as well as altered oscillations in local field potentials. These network modifications are thought to be directly related to PD motor symptoms such as tremor, akinesia and bradykinesia. Computational models of ...
