Needle Insertion

Needle Insertion

Needle insertion is a key procedure in minimally invasive surgery including percutaneous (through the skin) therapies. It is seemingly very simple: a surgeon aims the needle at the anatomical target (with the target position determined from high-quality medical image...
Stochastic Neuronal Networks

Stochastic Neuronal Networks

Biological neuronal networks exhibit a strongly random structure and receives strongly fluctuating inputs. We investigate the impact of additive fluctuations on the dynamics of random networks and aim to explain synchronization observed in the mammalian...
