This thesis illustrates a research on cell assemblies, groups of closely connected, synchronously activating neurons, which are thought to be the units of memory. After a review of the main experimental and theoretical advances in this field, and of the techniques of statistical physics and inference for the study of interacting neurons, a new method to unveil cell assemblies from neuronal data is illustrated and applied to multi-electrode recordings in the prefrontal cortex of rats during performance of a task and during the preceding and following sleep epochs. The method is based on the inference of an Ising network of effective interactions between the neurons and on the simulation of the inferred model in the presence of a global unifo...
