  1. 1. The corticogeniculate synapse : a neuronal amplifier?

    Author : Björn Granseth; Eric Hanse; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Consciousness is a nervous process that handles only a limited amount of information. Therefore the nervous system needs to select the most relevant input for aware processing. READ MORE

    Abstract : Brain function implies complex information processing in neuronal circuits, critically dependent on the molecular machinery that enables signal transmission across synaptic contacts between neurons. The types of ion channels and receptors in the neuronal membranes vary with neuron types and brain regions and determine whether neuronal responses will be excitatory or inhibitory and often allow for functional synaptic plasticity which is thought to be the basis for much of the adaptability of the nervous system and for our ability to learn and store memories.
