An Offset ON-OFF Receptive Field is Created by Gap Junctions Between Distinct Types of Retinal Ganglion Cells

Description:

In the vertebrate retina, neurons process visual signals, generating feature selectivity in their activity levels. We use computational models to understand these behaviors by interpreting them mathematically. One component of this analysis is the spatial selectivity or receptive field, a property found in all visual sensory neurons. The neurons found...

Modeling of Structural Plasticity and Synchronization in the Rodent Olfactory Bulb

Description:

To survive, animals, including human beings, have developed an amazing ability to learn the constantly changing environment. Specifically, detecting specific odorants in a noisy, variable background is crucial for finding food and water, mating, and avoiding potential dangers. For this purpose, rodents have developed an olfactory system that is powerful...
