It was often reported and suggested that the synchronization of spikes can occur without
changes in the firing rate. However, few theoretical studies have tested its mechanistic …

In the brain, the excitation-inhibition balance prevents abnormal synchronous behavior.
However, known synaptic conductance intensity can be insufficient to account for the …

We study the dynamics of a pair of intrinsically oscillating leaky integrate-and-fire neurons
(identical and noise-free) connected by combinations of electrical and inhibitory coupling …

Electrical synapses are ubiquitous in the mammalian CNS. Particularly in the neocortex,
electrical synapses have been shown to connect low-threshold spiking (LTS) as well as fast …

Excitatory and inhibitory synaptic coupling can have counter-intuitive effects on the
synchronization of neuronal firing. While it might appear that excitatory coupling would lead …

In vivo and in vitro experimental studies have found that blocking electrical interactions
connecting GABAergic interneurons reduces oscillatory activity in the µ range in cortex …

We study spike–burst neural activity and investigate its transitions to synchronized states
under electrical coupling. Our reported results include the following:(1) Synchronization of …

Isolated feedforward networks (FFNs) of spiking neurons have been studied extensively for
their ability to propagate transient synchrony and asynchronous firing rates, in the presence …

The firing rate of individual neurons depends on the firing frequency of their distributed
synaptic inputs, with linear and nonlinear relations subserving different computational …
