High Frequency Burst Firing of Granule Cells Ensures Transmission at the Parallel Fiber to Purkinje Cell Synapse at the Cost of Temporal Coding

High Frequency Burst Firing of Granule Cells Ensures Transmission at the Parallel Fiber to Purkinje Cell Synapse at the Cost of Temporal Coding

Cerebellar granule cells (GrCs) convey information from mossy fibers (MFs) to Purkinje cells (PCs) via their parallel fibers (PFs). MF to GrC signaling allows transmission of frequencies up to 1 kHz and GrCs themselves can also fire bursts of action potentials with instantaneous frequencies up to 1...
