Resumo(s)
The most outstanding feature of the human brain is its ability
to perform highly complex cognitive tasks and one key region of
the brain involved in these elaborated tasks is the prefrontal cortex.
However, little is known about the basic neuronal processes that sustain
these capacities. This dissertation describes the computational
study of the biophysical properties of neurons in the prefrontal cortex
that underlie complex cognitive processes with special emphasis
in working memory, the ability to keep information online in the
brain for a short period of time while processing incoming external
stimuli.(...)
