*18 VIDEOS online available: * *Workshop on Cortical Spreading Depression (CSD) and Related Neurological Phenomena* http://www.fields.utoronto.ca/video-archive/event/294/2014 Organizers: K. C. Brennan (Neurology,U Utah), Markus A. Dahlem (Physics, Humboldt U, Berlin), Huaxiong Huang (Math. & Statistics, York U), Robert M. Miura (Math. Sci. and Biomedical Eng, NJIT) This workshop brought together a group of researchers from the areas of mathematical modeling and clinicians and experimentalists in neuroscience to address some of the fundamental issues related to neurovascular coupling and cortical spreading depression (CSD) and related neurological phenomenon. 1. Bernice Grafstein: Spreading depression as a holistic process: A historical perspective 2. Cenk Ayata: Spreading depression and the biological heterogeneity of cerebral blood flow response: clues for modeling 3. Huaxiong Huang: Modeling cortical spreading depression and related phenomena 4. Steven Schiff: Unification in the Observation and Control of Spikes, Seizures, and Spreading Depression 5. Jessica Seidel: Cerebral Venous Potassium Efflux During Spreading Depression 6. David Terman: Blocking spreading depolarizations in a neuron/astrocyte network model 7. Jed Hartings: Spreading depolarizations in acute brain injury: mathematical dynamic instability of cerebral cortex? 8. Béla Joós: The Nav coupled left shift model of axon damage: how minor damage can cause major grief 9. Ghanim Ullah: Towards a model-based control of neuronal systems 10. Jorge Manuel Mendez: In vivo cellular dynamics in cortical spreading depression 11. Ernest Barreto: Ion Concentration Dynamics and its Effects on Neuronal Excitability and Bursting 12.
