Sentences with phrase «of synaptic input»

These data suggest that APP / PS1 mutations result in a reduced axonal Vc, potentially disrupting the timing of synaptic inputs.

Since most neurons receive thousands of synaptic inputs, the neuronal membrane is a mosaic of specialized microdomains where neurotransmitter receptors cluster in register with the corresponding presynaptic neurotransmitter release sites.

In the journal Physics of Life Reviews, Stuart Hameroff and Sir Roger Penrose suggest that quantum vibrational computations in microtubules (components of a cell's structure) are «orchestrated» by synaptic inputs and memory, and terminated by «objective reduction».

Current projects include modeling the biophysical mechanisms underlying synaptic plasticity and learning in dendritic trees, the dynamics of neuronal networks in the outer plexiform layer of the retina, and modeling the integration of multiple synaptic inputs in muscle fiber.

Previous research by Burger and Stefan Oline — a former Ph.D. candidate at Lehigh, now a postdoctoral fellow at New York University Medical School — demonstrated for the first time that synaptic inputs — the messages being sent between cells — are distinct across frequencies and that these different impulse patterns are «mapped» onto the cells of the cochlear nucleus.

In neurons of DIXDC1 mutant mice (center) the dendrites — neural antennae that receive input from other brain cells — have fewer of the dendritic spines (white with red arrows)-- the receiving half of most synaptic inputs — compared to dendrites in wild type mice (left).

The researchers developed a synaptic device that can reconfigure itself based on voltages applied at the input terminal of the device.

Activity - dependent and independent mechanisms regulate synaptic size and strength to ensure a balance between excitation and inhibition of inputs and between input and output.

As a rule, EEG signals are generated by synchronized synaptic input to the dendrites of neurons arranged in a layer.

Based on evidence from electrophysiological studies showing that both synaptic plasticity and strength of inputs to hippocampal region CA1 vary systematically with ongoing theta oscillations (Hyman et al., 2003; Brankack et al., 1993), it has been suggested that the theta rhythm functions to separate periods of encoding of current sensory stimuli and retrieval of episodic memory cued by current stimuli so as to avoid interference that would occur if encoding and retrieval were simultaneous.

This ability of nerves to modulate their chemical inputs, known as synaptic plasticity, is especially high in developing brains but tends to become less intense in adults.

Synaptic reconstruction of all excitatory and inhibitory inputs made onto a single cortical pyramidal neuron labeled with sparse in utero electroporation.

In Vivo Analysis of Inhibitory Synaptic Inputs and Rebounds in Deep Cerebellar Nuclear Neurons.

Winfried Denk has devised two experimental innovations of broad impact to studies of how individual neurons respond to synaptic inputs.

The touchpad also needs improvement — it's not just that Razer chose not to go with Precision and instead used Synaptics (which can be generally passable), but that it's just disappointing for one of the most - used input options on a laptop.
