Cells 19, 23, 28 and 29 of pattern [19 23 28 29 32 35 36 42] are stimulated as well as noise cells 45, 46, and 47. The blue traces are the excitatory cells, red are the inhibitory companions. The full assembly activates and then dies out around 250ms. The noise cells shut down before 50ms even passes.

We can get a better look by looking up close at the trace of cell 36, one of the cells in the assembly that did not receive a stimuli. Just type viewer(v _ ex,v _ in,36) into the prompt.

This is a close up of cell 36 Excitatory and Inhibitory from the simulation above. The blue trace of the excitatory cell slowly increases until it reaches a threshold where upon it fires rapidly. The interspike intervals decrease until the cell shut off. The inhibitory cell show by the red trace receives no input once the noise cells have been shut down.
Here the two C a 2 + pools are plotted for excitatory cell 36. Note the AP calcium enters quicker, the NMDA calcium has a slower time course and helps shut down the assembly.

Simulation 2 - pattern competition

In this simulation we will stimulate cells in two different patterns and see if one will "win" by activating it’s full pattern and suppressing the competing pattern. We will use the pattern from above and also another pattern.

>> find(p(6,:)==1) ans = 11 12 19 22 27 29 33 39

This pattern 6 should be interesting since it has two overlapping cells with pattern 1 (that is # 19 and # 29). Let’s run a simulation that picks one of the overlapping cells (19), 4 others from pattern 1 (28 32 35 36) and 3 more from pattern # 6 (11 12 22).

>> [v_ex,v_in] = LF_network(.01,50,350,1.5,[11 12 19 28 32 35 22 36],pp);
5 cells from pattern 1 and 4 cells from pattern 6 are stimulated. Pattern 1 resolves and shuts down around 250 ms

We can now try stimulated 4 cells from pattern # 1 and 5 cells from pattern # 6 .

>> [v_ex,v_in] = LF_network(.01,50,350,1.5,[11 12 19 22 27 28 32 35 ],pp);
4 cells from pattern 1 and 5 cells from pattern 6 are stimulated. This time Pattern 6 resolves and shuts down around 250 ms

Conclusion

This module has shown how results from the paper being followed can be reproduced. Hopefully, this will be helpful should future VIGRE students wish to pick up on these ideas. Extracting all the information out of the papers is difficult, so this module should serve as an easier way to follow the research we have done in the CAAM 499 Hippocampus Neuroscience Research Class in the Fall 07 and Spring 08 Semesters.

taste refers to your understanding of the flavor . while flavor one The other hand is refers to sort of just a blend things.

While taste primarily relies on our taste buds, flavor involves a complex interplay between taste and aroma

The lymphatic system plays several crucial roles in the human body, functioning as a key component of the immune system and contributing to the maintenance of fluid balance. Its main functions include: 1. Immune Response: The lymphatic system produces and transports lymphocytes, which are a type of

what's the difference between anatomy and physiology
Oyerinde Reply
Anatomy is the study of the structure of the body, while physiology is the study of the function of the body. Anatomy looks at the body's organs and systems, while physiology looks at how those organs and systems work together to keep the body functioning.

Enzymes are proteins that help speed up chemical reactions in our bodies. Enzymes are essential for digestion, liver function and much more. Too much or too little of a certain enzyme can cause health problems

the normal temperature is 37°c or 98.6 °Fahrenheit is important for maintaining the homeostasis in the body the body regular this temperature through the process called thermoregulation which involves brain skin muscle and other organ working together to maintain stable internal temperature
