Neuronal action potentials or spikes provide a long-range, noise-resistant means of
communication between neurons. As point processes single spikes contain little information …

Hippocampal place fields, the local regions of activity recorded from place cells in exploring
rodents, can undergo large changes in relative location during remapping. This process …

Background and objective Ever since its discovery, calcium imaging has proven its worth in
discovering new insights into the mechanisms of cellular communication. Yet, the analysis of …

Figure 1: Simulation of a Leaky Integrate-and-Fire neuron with a simple spike-dependent
adaptation mechanism. When stimulated with a square pulse (A), the neuron fires with a …

Protoporphyrinogen IX oxidase (PPO; EC 1.3. 3.4) is an essential enzyme catalyzing the last
common step in the pathway leading to heme and chlorophyll biosynthesis. Great interest in …

Pyramidal cells perform computations on their inputs within the context of the local network.
The present computational study investigates the consequences of feed-forward inhibition …

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS)
are the most commonly studied non-invasive brain stimulation treatment options. Over the …

Abstract Information processing in animals 'brain requires the balance between excitatory
and inhibitory neural circuits. Feedback inhibition is involved in many sensory processes; …

Epilepsy is characterized by recurrent seizures, which disrupt brain function. Deviations in
neuronal excitability and imbalances in excitation and inhibition have been shown to …

Pyramidal cells in the hippocampus are part of a small neuronal network that performs
computations on external input. The network consists of principal cells and various forms of …
