Neural systems are characterized by wide dynamic range, robustness, plasticity, andyet stability. How these competing ingredients are amalgamated into a system inwhich they all‘live’peacefully together is a key question to address and understandin neuroscience. Neuronal firing rates, synaptic weights, and population synchronyshow several orders of magnitude distribution. This skewed dynamic…
Angola is a country of unusually rich physiographic, climatic and biological diver-sity. It occupies only 4% of the terrestrial area of Africa, yet it possesses the highest diversity of biomes and is second only to mega-diverse South Africa in terms of the number of ecoregions found within its borders. However, scientific literature on its biodiversity is extremely limited when compared w…
