Fluctuations in Oscillation Frequency Control Spike Timing and Coordinate Neural Networks

Neuroscience

“Frequency sliding” (temporal fluctuations in peak oscillatory frequency is consider as a neural mechanism.  Neuron models are used to show how it can change spiking threshold and coincidence detection, and used to identify networks from EEG activity.
