Publication of the book "Computational Glioscience"
Dear colleagues, I would like to share with you the news of the publication of the book entitled "Computational Glioscience" (Springer, 2019). The book, which is co-edited by who is writing in collaboration with Dr. Hugues Berry (Inria, France) showcases a collection of original chapters In addition, feel free to reach out authors of individual chapters independently to ask for a copy of their manuscript if needed, that are authored by a pool of more than thirty internationally-renowned scientists. In particular, the book aims at presenting a selection of recent modelling approaches on the complex, emerging topic of neuron-glial interactions, from subcellular to network levels, both for experts and non-experts in the field. The whole book along with individual chapters may be accessed at the following link: https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-030-00817-8 A repository with freely-downloadable code used in the simulations of the book is also available at the address below: https://github.com/mdepitta/comp-glia-book The following is the Table of Contents of the book: Part I -- Introduction 1.
