Welcome to the ITU Neuroscience Modelling and Research Group
Istanbul Technical University
Neuroscience Modelling and Research Group
SIMMAG, located in Istanbul Technical University, Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering, is a team working in the field of computational neuroscience. The team focuses on understanding the computational mechanisms of brain and designing sytems that embody these mechanisms. Mathematical neuroscience and dynamical systems theory provide powerful methods to improve our knowledge about the computational power of the brain. The aim of SIMMAG is to use and improve these methods to generate simple models that accomplishes some basic computational mechanisms of brain in cognitive processes.
