Based on passive cable theory, an increase in membrane conductance produces a
decrease in the membrane time constant and input resistance. Unlike the classical leak …

Episodic learning and memory retrieval are dependent on hippocampal theta oscillation,
thought to rely on the GABAergic network of the medial septum (MS). To test how this …

Background Chronic pain is one of the disorders that cost any society high expenses. The
major mechanisms responsible for the conversion of pain from acute to chronic are still …

The phase of firing of hippocampal neurons during theta oscillations encodes spatial
information. Moreover, the spike phase response to synaptic inputs in individual cells …

In a neuron with hyperpolarization activated current (I h), the correct input frequency leads to
an enhancement of the output response. This behavior is known as resonance and is well …

The influence of the Channelrhodopsin-2 variant ChR2 (H134R) distribution on the
optogenetic excitability in a CA1 pyramidal neuron is studied in this dissertation. An …

The purpose of this dissertation was to assess synaptic integration in neurons from the rat
superior cervical ganglion (SCG) using complex temporal patterns of virtual synaptic activity …

Background Chronic pain is one of the disorders that cost any society high expenses. The
major mechanisms responsible for the conversion of pain from acute to chronic are still …

Cellular and Network Neurobiology Group Research in the group aims to identify the cellular
and network mechanisms of the generation of characteristic cortical (mainly hippocampal) …

The phase of firing of hippocampal neurons during theta oscillations (4-12 Hz) encodes
spatial information. This thesis aims to compare hippocampal CA3 and CA1 pyramidal cells …
