From stimulus estimation to combination sensitivity: encoding and processing of amplitude and timing information in parallel, co
Information theoretical approaches to sensory processing in electric fish have focused on the encoding of amplitude modulations in a single sensory pathway in the South American gy...

Mechanism of gain modulation at single neuron and network levels
Gain modulation, in which the sensitivity of a neural response to one input is modified by a second input, is studied at single-neuron and network levels. At the single neuron leve...

Dendritic action potentials connect distributed dendrodendritic microcircuits
Lateral inhibition of cells surrounding an excited area is a key property of sensory systems, sharpening the preferential tuning of individual cells in the presence of closely rela...

The role of synaptic facilitation in spike coincidence detection
Using a realistic model of activity dependent dynamical synapse, which includes both depressing and facilitating mechanisms, we study the conditions in which a postsynaptic neuron...

Spike-frequency adaptation generates intensity invariance in a primary auditory interneuron
Adaptation of the spike-frequency response to constant stimulation, as observed on various timescales in many neurons, reflects high-pass filter properties of a neuron's tran...

A model for synaptic development regulated by NMDA receptor subunit expression
Activation of NMDA receptors (NMDARs) is highly involved in the potentiation and depression of synaptic transmission. NMDARs comprise NR1 and NR2B subunits in the neonatal forebrai...
