Episodic synchronization in dynamically driven neurons

We examine the response of type II excitable neurons to trains of synaptic pulses, as a function of the pulse frequency and amplitude. Similarly to the case of harmonic inputs, these neurons exhibit a resonant behavior also for pulsed inputs. We interpret this phenomenon in terms of the subthreshold...
