Systematic analysis of the contributions of stochastic voltage gated channels to neuronal noise.

Electrical signaling in neurons is mediated by the openingand closing of large numbers of individual ion channels. The ion channel'sstate transitions are stochastic and introduce fluctuations in themacroscopic current through ion channel populations. This createsan unavoidable source of intrins...
