On the genesis of spike-wave activity in a mean-field model of human brain activity

In this letter, the genesis of spike-wave activity - a hallmark of many generalized epileptic seizures - is investigated in a reduced mean-field model of human neural activity. Drawing upon brain modeling and dynamical systems theory, we demonstrate that the thalamic circuitry of the system is cruci...
