In this thesis, we first introduce the required biological preparations and popular models for modeling single neuron, synapse and cable. Then by introduction of limit cycle oscillators and the necessary prerequisites, investigations are limited to systems involving weakly coupled oscillators. As two examples of such models, famous Kuramoto and Wilson- Cowan models are described. In the following, we introduce some methods for reduction dimension of weakly coupled oscillators and finally we apply one of the expressed methods on the dynamics of cortical network
