My Burst Control paper finally out in PLOS Comp Biol Check out my detailed thread with most results

Always inspried by the work at the Larkum lab!

A new preprint about how adding dendrites can potentially explain the phenomenon of multiple synaptic contacts between neurons in the brain: bioRxiv: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… With @sapir_shap Mickey London Idan Segev

Excited to see my final work in the lab out in JNeurosci SfN Journals! Through single-cell simulations, we explain the Ca2+ spike response to synaptic perturbations and ACh modulation. Special thanks to Mickey London, Idan Segev, Michael Doron, ELSC Brain: jneurosci.org/content/42/7/1…
