Abstract:
Purpose of this work is to study the dependence of interspike interval distribution on the model parameters when use is made of the Feller diffusion process to describe the subthreshold membrane potential of a neuron. To this aim we make use of a new approach, namely the ordering of first passage times. The functional dependence among the model parameters (e.g, membrane time constant, reversal potential, etc.) resulting from the ordering criteria employed and from the study of mean trajectory plots is analyzed into detail for four different scenario.

01:23Propagation of Action Potentials
Neurons (nerve cells) have a resting membrane potential, with a slightly negative charge inside compared to outside. This is maintained by ion channels, such as sodium (Na+) and potassium (K+) channels, which control the flow of ions. When a stimulus, like a touch or a signal from another neuron, triggers the neuron, sodium channels open, allowing sodium ions to...
01:19The Role of Ion Channels in Neuronal Computation
Sometimes a single EPSP is strong enough to induce an action potential in the postsynaptic neuron. However, multiple presynaptic inputs must often create EPSPs around the same time for the postsynaptic neuron to be sufficiently depolarized to fire an action potential.
