Can ephapticity contribute to brain complexity? by Gabriel Moreno Cunha, Gilberto Corso, Matheus Phellipe Brasil de Sousa, Gustavo Zampier Dos Santos Lima

“…We propose that these electric field couplings may provide an additional layer of connectivity that facilitates the formation of complex patterns and emergent dynamics in the brain. In this investigation, we conducted a comparative analysis between two types of networks utilizing the Quadratic Integrate-and-Fire Ephaptic model (QIF-E): (I) a small-world synaptic network (ephaptic-off) and (II) a mixed composite network comprising a small-world synaptic network with the addition of an ephaptic network (ephaptic-on). …”
