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.

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.
