High-Order Accuracy Computation of Coupling Functions for Strongly Coupled Oscillators We develop a general framework for identifying phase reduced equations for finite populations of coupled oscillators that is valid far beyond the weak coupling approximation. This strategy represents a general extension of the theory from and yields coupling functions that are valid to higher-order accuracy

Understanding the effect of white matter delays on large scale brain dynamics The presence of myelin is a powerful structural factor that controls the conduction velocity of mammalian axons. It is the combination of local synaptic activity and non-local delayed axonal interactions within the cortex that is believed to be the major source of large-scale

A stochastic first-order reaction gene translation and nuclear-to-cell ratio homeostasis model Cell size varies between different cell types, and between different growth and osmotic conditions. However, the nuclear-to-cell volume ratio (N/C ratio) is largely maintained. In this presentation, I will first introduce an osmotic pressure balance model of N/C ratio determination, which relates the N/C
