Signal propagation through the network off on Hz Hz ms ms “rate mode” Shadlen & Newsome, 1998 Van Rossum et al., 2002 “synchrony mode” Abeles, corticonics, 1991 Diesmann et al.,1999
Questions Is synchrony robust ? Why does synchrony develop ? Is it useful for transmitting signals ? Is it found in vivo?

Summary Is synchrony robust ? yes, for a wide range of physiological conditions Why does synchrony develop ? Neurons become correlated at stimulus onset Is it useful for transmitting signals ? Yes. In fact, it’s necessary! In vivo evidence? Yes. Quite strong.
