Abstract
The effect of glial cells (astrocytes) on the synaptic dynamics of interneuronal contacts and network dynamics is studied. The model is a network of synaptic connections with impulse neurons. Neurons have been discovered in the network that detect the effect of spontaneous transitions to the generation mode when it comes to the typical epileptiform activity of brain neural networks.
