Biased Random Walk Model of Neuronal Dynamics on Substrates with Periodic Geometrical Patterns.

ABSTRACT: Neuronal networks are complex systems of interconnected neurons responsible for transmitting and processing information throughout the nervous system. The building blocks of neuronal networks consist of individual neurons, specialized cells that receive, process, and transmit electrical and chemical signals throughout the body. The formation of neuronal networks in the developing nervous system is a process of fundamental importance for understanding brain activity, including perception, memory, and cognition. To form networks, neuronal cells extend long processes called axons, which navigate toward other target neurons guided by both intrinsic and extrinsic factors, including genetic programming, chemical signaling, intercellular interactions, and mechanical and geometrical cues.
