The paper shows that cortical spiking variability arises from weak synchrony rather than intrinsic properties, with synchrony dynamics shifting in response to sensory input.

The paper analyzes subthreshold variability in neuronal models under different levels of synaptic synchrony, finding that asynchronous states require restricted synapses for realistic variability, while dense inputs need weak synchrony.

This study shows that place cell activity in the hippocampus is structured by a grid scaffold, challenging the notion of randomness in their responses.

The paper analyzes how grid-like inputs constrain place cell field arrangements, showing they allow many configurations but with rigid geometric structure.
