Stochastic resonance is a phenomenon in which noise enhances the response of a system to an input signal. The brain is an example of a system that has to detect and transmit signals in a noisy environment, suggesting that it is a good…
Noise is an inherent part of neuronal dynamics, and thus of the brain. It can be observed in neuronal activity at different spatiotemporal scales, including in neuronal membrane potentials, local field potentials, electroencephalography,…

We study an extended system that without noise shows a spatially homogeneous state, but when submitted to an adequate multiplicative noise, some "noise-induced patterns" arise. The stochastic resonance between these structures is…
