Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors are heteropentameric ion channels that open upon activation to a single conducting state. The second transmembrane segments of each subunit were identified as channel-forming elements, but their respective contribution in ...
The neocortex is the most computationally advanced portion of the brain. It is currently assumed to be composed of a large number of "cortical columns" – intricate arrangements of cortical neurons approximately 300-500 µm in diameter and 2-5 mm in height i ...
Understanding the functional dynamics of ligand-gated ion-channels (LGIC's) on the molecular level is the aim of this thesis. Members of the protein family of LGIC's are involved in the fast synaptic signal transmission and thereby play a central role in i ...
A description of neuronal activity on the level of ion channels, as in the Hodgkin-Huxley model, leads to a set of coupled nonlinear differential equations which are difficult to analyze. In this paper, we present a conceptual framework for a reduction of ...
Minimal nonlinear dynamic neuron models of the generic bifurcation type may provide the middle way between the detailed models favored by experimentalists and the simplified threshold and rate model of computational neuroscientists. This thesis investigate ...
Opinions strongly diverge on what constitutes a good model of a neuron. Two lines of thought on this have coexisted for a long time: detailed biophysical models (of the style proposed in 1952 by the physiologists Alan Hodgkin and Andrew Huxley) that descri ...
Computations in cortical circuits are mediated by synaptic interactions between excitatory and inhibitory neurons, and yet we know little about their activity in awake animals. Here, through single and dual whole-cell recordings combined with two-photon mi ...
Maximization of information transmission by a spiking-neuron model predicts changes of synaptic connections that depend on timing of pre- and postsynaptic spikes and on the postsynaptic membrane potential. Under the assumption of Poisson firing statistics, ...
A path-integral approach is developed for the analysis of spike-triggered-average quantities in neurons with voltage-gated subthreshold currents. Using a linearization procedure to reduce the models to the generalized integrate-and-fire form, analytical ex ...
The dynamic of the neuronal response is highly influenced by the nature and the amount of noise that a neuron experienced, this noise being either external and internal to the neuron. The 10 000 synaptic afferents may not fire synchronously, hence, cause t ...
