  The onset of regular bursts in a group of irregularly bursting neurons with
different individual properties is one of the most interesting dynamical
properties found in neurobiological systems. In this paper we show how
synchronization among chaotically bursting cells can lead to the onset of
regular bursting. In order to clearly present the mechanism behind such
regularization we model the individual dynamics of each cell with a simple
two-dimensional map that produces chaotic bursting behavior similar to
biological neurons.
