Multiple Oscillatory States and Chaos in the Endogenous Activity of Excitable Cells: Pancreatic β-Cell as an Example

  • Chapter
Chaos in Biological Systems

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((NSSA,volume 138))

Abstract

The behaviour of pancreatic β-cells may be described by a system of three nonlinear differential equations that shows multiple oscillatory and chaotic solutions. Bifurcation diagrams of this system are constructed using AUTO.

Dr. Chay was unable to attend the workshop because of ill health.
