Balanced excitatory and inhibitory synaptic currents promote efficient coding and metabolic efficiency.
A balance between excitatory and inhibitory synaptic currents is thought to be important for several aspects of information processing in cortical neurons in vivo, including gain control, bandwidth and receptive field structure. These factors will affect the firing rate of cortical neurons and their...
