The brain is a complex multiscale dynamical system made of neurons, connected with each other by synapses. Neurons are multidimensional nonlinear systems able to exhibit dynamical activities at different temporal and spatial scales. The correct operation of the brain requires a carefully orchestrated activity across these scales, which includes the establishment of synchronized behavior within and among multiple neuronal populations. In this thesis we study different collective dynamical phenomena in brain networks that reveal exquisite coordination, by means of different models of cortical neuronal networks. First we study temporally coordinated patterns in the thalamus. During the sleep and awake states, this brain area is characteriz...
