Cable properties: Cellular Mechanisms of Brain Function

Description

This lecture covers the spatiotemporal dynamics of membrane potential in neurons, discussing leaky cables, capacitance, and the cable equation at steady state. It also explores the spatial distribution of membrane potential and the numerical simulations used to analyze neuronal structures.
