Editorial Reviews

Publishes 103 of the 196 papers presented at the conference, representing a cross-section of the general areas considered: subcellular, cellular, network, systems, and methodology. Specific topics include perturbative M-sequences for auditory systems identification, representing odor quality space as a perceptual framework for olfactory processing, the significance of modulated adaptation for rhythm generation and inter-segmental coordination in the lamprey, modeling dynamic receptive field changes produced by intracortical microstimulation, noise removal by nonlinear synapses, and analyzing coupled chaoscillators embedded within thalamocortical and corticocortical re-entry loops encompassing dynamics on multiple time scales.
