Anybody can observe vibrations in his/her own body during balancing or during shaking hands with one another. It is sown that the malfunctioning of the neural system is often related to the increase of delays in the neural system, causing unmanageable shifts in the phases of neural signals.

The paper reports the findings of a novel study linking researchers in Engineering Mathematics at the University of Bristol (a unique department in the UK) with those in Clinical Epilepsy at King’s College London.

Quickly moving your fingertips to press against a surface is essential to everyday life to, say, pick up small objects.
Our prior research revealed that the human nervous system employs a surprisingly time-critical and neurally demanding predictive strategy for this apparently trivial action. This numerical work reveals the physical bounds for controlling such rapid contact transitions [...]

In this paper we study the effect of two distinct discrete delays on the dynamics of a Wilson-Cowan neural network. This activity based model describes the dynamics of synaptically interacting excitatory and inhibitory neuronal populations. We discuss the interpretation of the delays in the language of neurobiology and show how they can contribute to the [...]
