Astrocyte and Neuronal Plasticity in the Somatosensory System (2015)
Journal Article
Sims, R. E., Butcher, J. B., Rheinallt Parri, H., & Glazewski, S. (2015). Astrocyte and Neuronal Plasticity in the Somatosensory System. Neural Plasticity, 2015, Article 732014. https://doi.org/10.1155/2015/732014

Changing the whisker complement on a rodent’s snout can lead to two forms of experience-dependent plasticity (EDP) in the neurons of the barrel cortex, where whiskers are somatotopically represented. One form, termed coding plasticity, concerns chang... Read More about Astrocyte and Neuronal Plasticity in the Somatosensory System.

Stimulus intensity determines experience-dependent modifications in neocortical neuron firing rates. (2015)
Journal Article
Glazewski, S., & Barth, A. L. (2015). Stimulus intensity determines experience-dependent modifications in neocortical neuron firing rates. European Journal of Neuroscience, 41(4), 410 - 419. https://doi.org/10.1111/ejn.12805

Although subthreshold inputs of neocortical sensory neurons are broadly tuned, the spiking output is more restricted. These subthreshold inputs provide a substrate for stimulus intensity-dependent changes their spiking output, as well as for experien...
