A cut finite element method for spatially resolved energy metabolism models in complex neuro-cell morphologies with minimal remeshing
Abstract A thorough understanding of brain metabolism is essential to tackle neurodegenerative diseases. Astrocytes are glial cells which play an important metabolic role by supplying neurons with energy. In addition, astrocytes provide scaffolding and homeostatic functions to neighboring neurons an...
