Network Functions and Plasticity: Perspectives from Studying Neuronal Electrical Coupling in Microcircuits by Jian Jing (School of Life Sciences, Nanjing University, Jiangsu, China and Department of Neuroscience, Mount Sinai School of Medicine, NY, USA)
Network Functions and Plasticity: Perspectives from Studying Neuronal Electrical Coupling in Microcircuits focuses on the specific roles of electrical coupling in tractable, well-defined circuits, highlighting current research that offers novel insights for electrical coupling's roles in sensory and motor functions, neural computations, decision-making, regulation of network activity, circuit development, and learning and memory. Bringing together a diverse group of international experts and their contributions using a variety of approaches to study different invertebrate and vertebrate model systems with a focus on the role of electrical coupling/gap junctions in microcircuits, this book presents a timely contribution for students and researchers alike.
