for the electronic device Coincidence circuit Coincidence detection in the context of neurobiology is a process by which a neuron or a neural circuit can encode information by detecting the occurrence of timely simultaneous yet spatially separate input signals. Coincidence detectors are important in information processing by reducing temporal jitter , reducing spontaneous activity, and forming associations between separate neural events. This concept has led to a greater understanding of neural processes and the formation of computational maps in the brain. Principles of coincidence detection Image Spatial summation.JPG thumb right Fig. 1 Two EPSP s innervated in rapid succession sum to produce a larger EPSP or even an action potential in the postsynaptic cell. Coincidence detection relies on separate inputs converging on a common target. Consider a basic neural circuit with two input neurons, A and B, that have excitatory synaptic terminals converging on a single output neuron, C Fig. 1 . If each input neuron s EPSP is subthreshold for an action potential at C, then C will not fire unless the two inputs from A and B are temporally close together. Synchronous arrival of these two inputs may push the membrane potential of a target neuron over the threshold required to create an action potential. If the two inputs arrive too far apart, the depolarization of the first input may have time to drop significantly, preventing the membrane potential of the target neuron from reaching the action potential threshold. This example incorporates the principles of spatial summation spatial and temporal summation . Furthermore, coincidence detection can reduce the jitter formed by spontaneous ... of the postsynaptic cell to glutamate Purves 2004 . See also Neurobiology Sound localization Long term ...

Cleanup date October 2007 In neurobiology, a tetanic stimulation consists of a high frequency sequence of individual stimulations of a neuron . It is associated with long term potentiation . High frequency stimulation causes an increase in release called post tetanic potentiation Kandel 2003 . This presynaptic event is caused by calcium influx . Calcium protein interactions then produce a change in Synaptic vesicle vesicle exocytosis . Tetanic stimulation is used to detect a non depolarizing block or a depolarizing block on the neuromuscular junction. Lower elicitations of tetanic stimulation in aged muscles were shown to be caused by lower levels of anaerobic energy provision in skeletal muscles Campbell, Marsh, Spriet, 1991 .

Orphan date October 2008 In neurobiology , a mesaxon is a pair of parallel cell membrane plasma membranes of a Schwann cell , marking the point of edge to edge contact by the Schwann cell encircling the axon . A single Schwann cell of the peripheral nervous system will wrap around and support only one individual unmyelinated axon ratio of 1 1 , while the oligodendrocytes found in the central nervous system can wrap around and support 5 8 axons. Thin unmyelinated axons are often bundled, with several unmyelinated axons to a single mesaxon and several such groups to a single Schwann cell . The outer mesaxon Terminologia histologica Mesaxon externum is the connection of the outer cell membrane to the compact myelin sheath. The inner mesaxon Terminologia histologica Mesaxon internum is the connection between the myelin sheath and the inner part of the cell membrane of the Schwann cell which is directly opposite the axolemma, i.e. the cell membrane of the nerve fibre ensheathed by the Schwann cell.

Access date 15 May 2011. ref At UCL, Woolf described central sensitization of pain, demonstrating that the phenomenon can be measured in nerve cells in the posterior horn of spinal cord dorsal horn of the spinal cord, involves the neurotransmitter N methyl D aspartate, can be moderated by opiates, and contributes to tactile allodynia and secondary hyperalgesia . At a time when surgeons and anesthesiologists routinely only administered analgesia after the patient complained of severe pain, he collaborated on clinical trials investigating the benefits of giving morphine analgesia prior to surgery, to preempt post surgical central sensitization. His work is largely responsible for the current practice of treating pain early.

Portal Neuroscience A neuroscientist sometimes also called a neurobiologist is an individual who studies the science scientific field of neuroscience or any of its related sub fields. Neuroscience neurobiology as a distinct discipline separate from anatomy , neurology , physiology , psychology , or psychiatry is fairly recent, aided in large part by the advent of newer, faster computing methods and neuroimaging techniques. These scientist s generally work as researchers within a college , university , government agency , or private industry setting. Training and education Many colleges and universities now have a neuroscience program, existing either as its own distinct department or as an institute within another, larger department. Often the neuroscience program exists within the psychology, molecular biology molecular and cell biology , or other biology department. There are now many schools that offer Doctor of Philosophy PhDs in neuroscience and or neurobiology.
