Lecture
Action potential propagation: Mechanisms and Speed
Description
This lecture covers the cellular mechanisms of action potential propagation, including the initiation at the axon initial segment, active amplification, passive spread, and the role of myelination. It also discusses the speed of action potential propagation, which depends on factors like membrane resistance and axial current flow.
