In this work, we investigate the phenomenon of neutron star collapse into a black hole within the framework of modified theories of gravity, exploring the consequences of departures from General Relativity (GR), specifically, under massive scalar-tensor theories that allow for scalarization in order to understand the effect of these modifications in the astrophysical process. To accomplish...
The hippocampus is considered to be involved in spatial navigation and memory formation; it hosts cells with high firing rates at a given location – place cells (PCs), which allow the construction of the hippocampal cognitive map of space. However, it is not understood how memories are related to the hippocampal place fields. On the one hand, the stability of its neural code may support...
Agent-Based Models (ABMs) allow researchers to describe complex cellular systems in a mechanistic manner but can also abstract over less-known processes.
It is often desirable to exchange only parts of the model eg. changing the spatial representation of cells from a spherical interaction potential to an elliptical.
Existing tools lack in flexibility and cannot change their internal...
Modern experimental techniques and medical examination methods generate vast amounts of data that must be protected carefully according to the GDPR. At the same time, handling of such data, e.g., human DNA sequences, MRI images, or EEG traces is necessary for medical research and personalized medicine. Especially when performing statistical analyses on many datasets, the amount of data is too...
