Pycabnn: Efficient and Extensible Software to Construct an Anatomical Basis for a Physiologically Realistic Neural Network Model

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroinformatics, 2020
Physiologically detailed models of neural networks are an important tool for studying how biophysical mechanisms impact neural information processing. An important, fundamental step in constructing such a model is determining where neurons are placed and

Detecting Multiple Change Points Using Adaptive Regression Splines With Application to Neural Recordings

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroinformatics, 2018
Time series, as frequently the case in neuroscience, are rarely stationary, but often exhibit abrupt changes due to attractor transitions or bifurcations in the dynamical systems producing them.

Cell-intrinsic mechanisms of temperature compensation in a grasshopper sensory receptor neuron

open access: yeseLife, 2014
Changes in temperature affect biochemical reaction rates and, consequently, neural processing. The nervous systems of poikilothermic animals must have evolved mechanisms enabling them to retain their functionality under varying temperatures.

Learning prediction error neurons in a canonical interneuron circuit

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Sensory systems constantly compare external sensory information with internally generated predictions. While neural hallmarks of prediction errors have been found throughout the brain, the circuit-level mechanisms that underlie their computation are ...

Absence of the Fragile X messenger ribonucleoprotein alters response patterns to sounds in the auditory midbrain

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2022
Among the different autism spectrum disorders, Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is the most common inherited cause of intellectual disability. Sensory and especially auditory hypersensitivity is a key symptom in patients, which is well mimicked in the Fmr1 ...

Clusters of cooperative ion channels enable a membrane-potential-based mechanism for short-term memory

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Across biological systems, cooperativity between proteins enables fast actions, supra-linear responses, and long-lasting molecular switches. In the nervous system, however, the function of cooperative interactions between voltage-dependent ionic channels

A dynamic clamp protocol to artificially modify cell capacitance

open access: yeseLife, 2022
Dynamics of excitable cells and networks depend on the membrane time constant, set by membrane resistance and capacitance. Whereas pharmacological and genetic manipulations of ionic conductances of excitable membranes are routine in electrophysiology ...
