Abstract
Models of neural networks are developed from a biological point of view. Small networks are analysed using techniques from dynamical systems. The behaviour of spatially and temporally organized neural fields is then discussed from the point of view of pattern formation. Bifurcation methods, analytic solutions and perturbation methods are applied to these models.Keywords
