The electrogenicity of the Na+/K+-ATPase poses challenges for computation in highly active spiking cells

The paper shows that the electrogenicity of the Na+/K+-ATPase can cause firing shifts and disrupt computation in highly active spiking cells.

Robustness through variability: ion channel isoform diversity safeguards neuronal excitability

The paper shows that calcium channel isoform diversity increases variance in gating properties, enhancing neuronal excitability robustness to perturbations.

Fitting bifurcation structure, not voltage traces: Reduced neuron models that preserve physiological parameter dependence

The paper develops a reduced neuron model that captures bifurcation structure rather than voltage traces, preserving physiological parameter dependence in class I conductance-based models.

Dynamically rich states in balanced networks induced by single-neuron dynamics

The paper shows that weak synaptic coupling and intrinsic cellular dynamics can generate rich network states with enhanced variability and information encoding in balanced networks.

Slow rhythmic activity from an interplay of voltage and extracellular concentration dynamics: a minimal biophysical mechanism for neuronal bursting

The paper demonstrates that slow neuronal rhythms can arise from the interplay of voltage dynamics and extracellular potassium concentration changes, mediated by the Na+/K+-ATPase, without requiring synaptic connectivity or special ion channels.

A dynamic clamp protocol to artificially modify cell capacitance

This paper introduces a dynamic clamp protocol to artificially modify cell capacitance in neurons, demonstrating its feasibility in both models and in vitro experiments.

Insect asynchronous flight requires neural circuit de-synchronization by electrical synapses

The paper identifies a neural circuit mechanism in insect flight where electrical synapses de-synchronize motoneurons to produce stable wingbeat power.

Activity-mediated accumulation of potassium induces a switch in firing pattern and neuronal excitability type

The paper shows that intense neuronal activity changes ionic concentrations, leading to a switch in firing patterns and excitability types in mouse cortical neurons.
