Electrical synapses between inhibitory neurons shape the responses of principal neurons to transient inputs in the thalamus

Tuan Duc Pham, Julie S. Haas

The paper shows that electrical synapses in the thalamus help shape how principal neurons respond to brief inputs by truncating, delaying, or inhibiting spike trains.
