GENERAL INPUT‐OUTPUT RELATIONS FOR THE SYNAPTIC TRANSMISSION AND THE POST‐SYNAPTIC INTEGRATION

Abstract

We complete our general parametric description of the working of any neuron by furnishing a simple model of the synaptic transmission and a general formula for post‐synaptic integration. We discuss the influence of some synaptic parameters upon the logical functions performed by the neuron. The same ionic and molecular phenomena explain the pre‐synaptic inhibition and the ability to “gestallt” synthesizing huge cortical cells.
