Investigating dendritic computation in pyramidal cells. (360G-Wellcome-086135_Z_08_Z)
1) Measure voltage in the dendrites and spines of cortical pyramidal cells during back propagating action potentials (BAP) and synaptic input. 2) Investigate the properties of synaptic integration in pyramidal cells with different spatio-temporal patterns of excitatory synaptic input, with the aim of exploring the conditions that produce linear and nonlinear synaptic integration. 3) Examine how inhibitory synaptic input influences synaptic integration in pyramidal cells with a particular focus on whether inhibition can affect nonlinear dendritic processes.
