Burst control: Synaptic conditions for burst generation in cortical layer 5 pyramidal neurons.

Paper summary

Uses a detailed layer-five pyramidal-cell model to study synaptic conditions generating bursts. Nonlinear dendritic events interact with excitation and inhibition, allowing distinct input streams to alter the occurrence and properties of output bursts.

Relevance to the project

Supports viewing a neuron as a nonlinear dynamical processor with multiple interacting functions. Burst behavior can be a comparison without requiring biological compartments in d-float state.

A detailed cellular model is not evidence that the project needs spiking.
