Propagating Synchrony in Feed-Forward Networks

Coordinated patterns of precisely timed action potentials (spikes) emerge in a variety of neural circuits but their dynamical originis still not well understood. One hypothesis states that synchronous activity propagating through feed-forward chains of groups of neurons (synfire chains) may dynamica...
