TL;DR: A comparison of single and two-dimensional neuron models for spiking neuron models and models of Synaptic Plasticity shows that the former are superior to the latter, while the latter are better suited to population models.

TL;DR: This textbook for advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate students provides a thorough and up-to-date introduction to the fields of computational and theoretical neuroscience.

TL;DR: With an appropriate choice of parameters, Hebbian synaptic plasticity has intrinsic normalization properties that stabilizes postsynaptic firing rates and leads to subtractive weight normalization.

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that mice with haploinsufficiency for Cyln2 have features reminiscent of Williams syndrome, including mild growth deficiency, brain abnormalities, hippocampal dysfunction and particular deficits in motor coordination, using a gene-targeting approach.

TL;DR: It is concluded that the absence of Cx36 in the inferior olive is not compensated by the formation of other gap-junction channels but instead by changes in the cytological and electroresponsive properties of its neurons, such that the capability to produce rhythmic activity is maintained.
