Electrical synapses are the neurophysiological product of gap junctional pores between
neurons that allow bidirectional flow of current between neurons. They are expressed …

The least known aspect of the functional architecture of hippocampal microcircuits is the
quantitative distribution of synaptic inputs of identified cell classes. The complete dendritic …

Spine-free calretinin-immunoreactive (CR-IR) interneurons form a subpopulation of
GABAergic cells in the rat hippocampus. A characteristic feature of these cells—located in all …

Rhythmic oscillations are common features of nervous systems. One of the fundamental
questions posed by these rhythms is how individual neurons or groups of neurons are …

The properties of mammalian spinal interneurons that underlie rhythmic locomotor networks
remain poorly described. Using postnatal transgenic mice in which expression of green …

This book is a result of a Symposium* organized by the Editors in October 1984 at San
Diego. Almost all of the present and past investigators of the Crustacean Stomatogastric …

Neurons with oscillatory properties are a common feature of the nervous system, but little is
known about how neural oscillators shape the behavior of neuronal networks or how …

Despite significant advances in our understanding of pattern generation in invertebrates and
lower vertebrates, there have been barriers to the application of the principles learned to the …

We present a dynamical theory of integrate-and-fire neurons with strong synaptic coupling.
We show how phase-locked states that are stable in the weak coupling regime can …
