23 March 2010: SPRING BREAK
- No meeting, because it's spring break. But to keep you in good form, take a look at this paper that Shane found. Contrary to what I presented at the beginning of the semester, these authors argue that extracellular fields per se CAN directly affect neuronal activity. If this effect is sufficiently true to matter, this would provide another mechanism by which neuronal populations can be coordinated (or, in some circumstances, an additional problem to be overcome in trying to coordinate them). Maybe we'll get a chance to talk about it later this semester.
