Opposing effects of intrinsic conductance and correlated synaptic input on Vm-fluctuations during network activity

Neurons often receive massive concurrent bombardment of synaptic inhibition and excitation during functional network activity. This increases membrane conductance and causes fluctuations in membrane potential (Vm) and spike timing. The conductance increase is commonly attributed to synaptic conducta...
