A Computational Study on the Role of Gap Junctions and Rod I(h) Conductance in the Enhancement of the Dynamic Range of the Retina
Recent works suggest that one of the roles of gap junctions in sensory systems is to enhance their dynamic range by avoiding early saturation in the first processing stages. In this work, we use a minimal conductance-based model of the ON rod pathways in the vertebrate retina to study the effects of...
