Spring 2011
The goal of this thesis is to investigate the biophysical basis underlying the nonlinear relationship between firing response and current stimulation in single motor neurons. After reviewing the relevant motoneuron physiology and theories that describe complex dendritic signaling properties, I...

The computational ability of principal neurons and interneurons in the brain and their ability to work together in concert are thought to underlie higher order cognitive processes such as learning, memory, and attention. Dendrites play a very important role in neuronal information processing...
