Department of Economics / Computational Neuroeconomics Group Take home message: More fun with currents Essentially deepest insight of today’s session: Spike frequency and AP creation are dependent on external, stimulating current. Today some intrinsic currents will partially counteract the effect of the external driving current. This will be done in a dynamic manner via the introduction of 1 or 2 additional currents modelling Afterhyperpolarizing effects (very slow K + ) Additional depolarizing effects (fast Ca 2+ ) This dynamic net current fluctuation will lead to complex behavior due to recurring back- and forth-crossings of bifurcation boundaries 4/27/2011Chapter 10 – Neural Adaptation and BurstingPage 5
