Recent Developments and Resources in Neuroinformatics and Computational Neuroscience

Abstract

In comparison to other natural systems, the temporal dynamics of the human brain's growth, structure, and function are notably intricate. The human brain is comprised of an estimated 86.1 to 8.0 billion neurons and a comparable non-neural glial cells number. Additionally, the brain contains neuronal systems with over 100 trillion connections. The modeling, analysis, and comprehension of these complex structures require the use of code and automation. Neuroinformatics methodologies are employed to manage, retrieve, and integrate the copious quantities of data produced through clinical documentation, scientific literature, and specialized databases. Conversely, computational neuroscience, which draws heavily upon the fields of biology, physics, mathematics, and computation, tackles these issues. Neuroinformatics is an interdisciplinary field that integrates computational neuroscience and neuroscientific experimentation. This paper functions as an introductory guide for individuals who lack familiarity with the domains of neuroinformatics and computational neuroscience, along with their consistent sophisticated software, resources, and tools.
