Abstract
By modelling a single neuron as a suprathreshold FitzHugh-Nagumo oscillator we perform a numerical study of the synchronization phenomena occurring in a network of them with all-to-all chemical and electrical synaptic couplin g. A variety of states with different degree of synchronization (either in amplitude, or phase, or frequency) is found to occur, depending on the numb er of oscillators and on the coupling parameters.
