Description of the research topic:
It is known from rodent models that single neurons can be responsible for initiating motor function and modification of behaviour. The question arise however, what mechanisms responsible for controling Hebbian networks. We showed previously the unprecedented effectiveness of a single spike in the human neural networks which is able to induce Hebbian chains of signal transmission (Molnár et al., 2008) including components og glutamatergand GABAerg postsynaptic potentials arranged in high frequency (200 Hz) oscillation sequences. The aim of our project is to show the subclasses of principal cells participate in such neural sequences and uncover inhibitory components of Hebbian network using state-of-the-art techniques (electrophysiology, 2 photon imaging etc.).
