  2. Neural oscillation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neural_oscillation

    Bursting neurons have the potential to serve as pacemakers for synchronous network oscillations, and bursts of spikes may underlie or enhance neuronal resonance. [27] Many of these neurons can be considered intrinsic oscillators, namely, neurons that generate their oscillations intrinsically, as their oscillation frequencies can be modified by ...

  3. Subthreshold membrane potential oscillations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subthreshold_membrane...

    Neurons display, beyond synaptic and action potentials, rhythmic subthreshold membrane potential oscillations (a particular type of neural oscillations).These oscillations, which resembled sinusoidal wave forms, were originally discovered in the mammalian inferior olive nucleus cells. [6]

  4. Phase resetting in neurons - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_resetting_in_neurons

    Neurons firing in synchrony in circadian pacemaker cells. Phase resetting in neurons is a behavior observed in different biological oscillators and plays a role in creating neural synchronization as well as different processes within the body. Phase resetting in neurons is when the dynamical behavior of an oscillation is shifted. This occurs ...

  5. Neuronal noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuronal_noise

    Connectivity noise: Noise that arises from the number of connections and non-uniformity that a neuron has with other neurons within a neuronal network. There is a stronger presence of sub-threshold noise when the interconnectivity is strengthened, or the number of connection to other neurons is increased. [10] The opposite remains true, too.

  6. Brainwave entrainment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brainwave_entrainment

    Brainwave entrainment is a colloquialism for 'neural entrainment', [25] which is a term used to denote the way in which the aggregate frequency of oscillations produced by the synchronous electrical activity in ensembles of cortical neurons can adjust to synchronize with the periodic vibration of external stimuli, such as a sustained acoustic ...

  7. Recurrent thalamo-cortical resonance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recurrent_thalamo-cortical...

    Recurrent thalamo-cortical resonance or thalamocortical oscillation is an observed phenomenon of oscillatory neural activity between the thalamus and various cortical regions of the brain. It is proposed by Rodolfo Llinas and others as a theory for the integration of sensory information into the whole of perception in the brain .

  8. Neural coding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neural_coding

    Another feature of this code is that neurons adhere to a preferred order of spiking between a group of sensory neurons, resulting in firing sequence. [42] Phase code has been shown in visual cortex to involve also high-frequency oscillations. [42] Within a cycle of gamma oscillation, each neuron has its own preferred relative firing time.

  9. Sharp waves and ripples - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sharp_waves_and_ripples

    Features of these oscillations provided evidences for their role in inducing synaptic plasticity and memory consolidation. Among these features are their widespread effect on the population of neurons in the hippocampus, and the experience-related activity of participating neurons.
