2.1.2 Glossary of Terms 2.1.3 Software model ; 2.1.4 Application manual ; 2.1.5 OS model example ; 2.1.6 Simulation algorithm ; 3. Information -- A tool to interpret the biological phenomena ; Part III: Organ level ; 4. The virtual heart.
5. Modeling figure/ground separation with spiking neurons 5.1 Introduction ; 5.2 Figure/ground separation ; 5.3 Spiking neural networks ; 5.4 Lateral connections via gap junctions ; 5.5 Simulation of a sheet of laterally connected neurons ; 5.6 Basis of our model ; 5.7 Conclusion.
Summary: This book describes biological and medical phenomena and how they can be virtually simulated by breaking them down into basic principles. It introduces a wide spectrum of applications, from molecules, tissues, and organs up to the whole body, with a focus on how to use and interpret these simulations. The book is complemented by topics such as serious games and distance medicine.
