Modeling the calcium spike as a threshold triggered fixed waveform for synchronous inputs in the fluctuation regime

Modeling the layer 5 pyramidal neuron as a system of three connected isopotential compartments, the soma, proximal and distal compartment, with calcium spike dynamics in the distal compartment following first order kinetics, we are able to reproduce in-vitro experimental results which demonstrate th...
