  2. Glymphatic system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glymphatic_system

    According to this model, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), an ultrafiltrated plasma fluid secreted by choroid plexuses in the cerebral ventricles, flows into the paravascular space around cerebral arteries, contacts and mixes with interstitial fluid (ISF) and solutes within the brain parenchyma, and exits via the cerebral venous paravascular spaces ...

  3. Neuroanatomy of memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuroanatomy_of_memory

    Using the interview and different methods of imaging, the experimenters hoped to find links between patterns of brain volume loss and performance in the interview. [24] Through image processing, patterns of significant reduced parenchymal volumes that encompass the frontal and temporal lobes were found. Through comparison to a control group of ...

  4. Non-invasive measurement of intracranial pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-invasive_measurement...

    The infrequency of ICP can be attributed to the invasive nature of the standard monitoring methods (which require insertion of an ICP sensor into the brain ventricle or parenchymal tissue). Additional risks presented to patients can include high costs associated with an ICP sensor's implantation procedure, and the limited access to trained ...

  5. Levels of Processing model - Wikipedia

    Conversely, deep processing (e.g., semantic processing) results in a more durable memory trace. [1] There are three levels of processing in this model. Structural processing, or visual, is when we remember only the physical quality of the word (e.g. how the word is spelled and how letters look).

  6. Nervous system network models - Wikipedia

    This model is the Integrate-and-Fire (IF) model that was mentioned in Section 2.3. Closely related to IF model is a model called Spike Response Model (SRM) (Gerstner, W. (1995) [15] Pages 738-758) that is dependent on impulse function response convoluted with the input stimulus signal. This forms a base for a large number of models developed ...

  7. Biological neuron model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_neuron_model

    Thus, spiking neurons are a major information processing unit of the nervous system. One such example of a spiking neuron model may be a highly detailed mathematical model that includes spatial morphology. Another may be a conductance-based neuron model that views neurons as points and describes the membrane voltage dynamics as a function of ...

  8. Glia limitans - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glia_limitans

    The glia limitans, or the glial limiting membrane, is a thin barrier of astrocyte foot processes associated with the parenchymal basal lamina surrounding the brain and spinal cord. It is the outermost layer of neural tissue , and among its responsibilities is the prevention of the over-migration of neurons and neuroglia , the supporting cells ...

  9. Information processing (psychology) - Wikipedia

    An example of this is the working memory model. This includes the central executive, phonologic loop, episodic buffer, visuospatial sketchpad, verbal information, long-term memory, and visual information. [2] The central executive is like the secretary of the brain. It decides what needs attention and how to respond.
