In a two-compartment model of a cell with a K+- and Cl–-permeable membrane and a 10-fold excess of K+ in the inside compartment, how would the membrane potential change if all K+ ions were replaced by Cl– ions?

In a generalized linear model, the probability of a neural response is dependent on the statistics of the stimulus, in addition to those governing the neuron’s intrinsic mechanisms (its firing history)

Changing the temperature of a squid giant axon from 20oC to 40oC would change the K+ equilibrium potential (Nernst potential) from about -75 mV to about

The time constant of synaptic integration of a Leaky Integrate and Fire neuron will affect the coefficient of variation in the following ways

Some notable differences between linear and Bayesian decoders (Choose all that apply)

The central idea of projecting the neural data onto a lower dimensional space (e.g. principal component analysis) is to reduce the dimensionality of a data set consisting of a large number of interrelated variables, while retaining as much as possible of the variation present that could be attributed to the stimulus that evoked this neural activity.

The crosscorrelation function of two neurons’ spike trains tells us something about

information theory can be used to estimate information transfer without making any assumptions about how the stimulus is encoded in the measured neural Activity.

Which of these is an example of a complimentary antonym pair? (Remember, there is a difference between complementary and gradable antonyms.) 

The nurse is teaching the parents of a child with asthma how to use a peak flow meter. Which instruction will the nurse provide if the child has a peak flow reading in the yellow zone?
