However, the link between structural connectivity and observed neuronal activity remains not fully understood. Previous research utilizing a large-scale spiking network model of leaky integrate-and-fire neurons has addressed this question for macaque cortex [1,2]. In this study, we employ the same framework to investigate human cortex and present a large-scale spiking network model that links the cortical network structure to the resting-state activity of neurons, populations, layers, and areas.Our approach integrates data on cortical architecture, cellular morphologies, and local and cortico-cortical connectivity into a multi-scale framework to predict connection probabilities between neurons based on their types and locations within areas and layers. We represent each cortical area with a 1 mm2 area-specific microcircuit incorporating the full density of neurons and synapses. For this first model version, the laminar thicknesses and neuron densities are derived from the von Economo and Koskinas atlas [3]. The connectivity on the area level is informed by diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) data [4], while predictions on laminar connectivity patterns are derived from predictive connectomics based on macaque data that express regularities of laminar connectivity patterns as a function of cortical architecture. We use the Potjans and Diesmann [5] model as a basis for the local connectivity, scaling it according to cytoarchitectonic data. To map inter-area synapses to target cells, which may have their cell body in a different layer compared to the synapse location, we assign synapses in proportion to the layer- and cell-type-specific dendritic lengths determined from human neuron morphologies [6]. The model contains approximately 4 million neurons and 50 billion synapses and is simulated on JURECA-DC using the NEST simulator.Simulations of the model reveal a state with asynchronous and irregular activity that deviates from experimental recordings in terms of spiking activity and inter-area functional connectivity. By increasing the strength of the inter-area synapses, a state is reached that captures aspects of both microscopic and macroscopic resting-state activity of human cortex measured via electrophysiological recordings from medial frontal cortex and fMRI [7]. Furthermore, we used our model to track the effect of a single additional spike through the large-scale network. We find that a single-spike perturbation spreads rapidly across the entire network within 50-75 ms, comparable to visual response latencies in macaque cortex [8], suggesting that the cortical network allows individual spikes to play a role in fast sensory processing and behavioral responses. Overall, the model serves as a basis for the investigation of multi-scale structure-dynamics relationships in human cortex.}, month = {Jul}, date = {2023-07-15}, organization = {32nd Annual Computational Neuroscience Meeting CNS*2023, Leipzig (Germany), 15 Jul 2023 - 19 Jul 2023}, subtyp = {Other}, cin = {INM-6 / IAS-6 / INM-10}, cid = {I:(DE-Juel1)INM-6-20090406 / I:(DE-Juel1)IAS-6-20130828 / I:(DE-Juel1)INM-10-20170113}, pnm = {5231 - Neuroscientific Foundations (POF4-523) / DFG project 313856816 - SPP 2041: Computational Connectomics (313856816) / DFG project 347572269 - Heterogenität von Zytoarchitektur, Chemoarchitektur und Konnektivität in einem großskaligen Computermodell der menschlichen Großhirnrinde (347572269) / HBP SGA3 - Human Brain Project Specific Grant Agreement 3 (945539) / Brain-Scale Simulations $(jinb33_20220812)$}, pid = {G:(DE-HGF)POF4-5231 / G:(GEPRIS)313856816 / G:(GEPRIS)347572269 / G:(EU-Grant)945539 / $G:(DE-Juel1)jinb33_20220812$}, typ = {PUB:(DE-HGF)24}, doi = {10.34734/FZJ-2023-02823}, url = {https://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/1009486}, }
