Biological neural networks are large systems of complex elements interacting through a complex array of connections.
How do we describe and interpret the activity of a large
population of neurons and how do we model neural circuits when:
o individual neurons are such complex elements and
o our knowledge of the synaptic connections is so incomplete?
