The Leaky Neuron: Understanding synaptic integration using an analogy involving leaky cups
Learning ObjectivesStudents will able to:- compare and contrast spatial and temporal summation in terms of the number of presynaptic events and the timing of these events
- predict the relative contribution to reaching threshold and firing an action potential as a function of distance from the axon hillock
- predict how the frequency of incoming presynaptic action potentials effects the success of temporal summation of resultant postsynaptic potentials
-
Modeling the Research Process: Authentic human physiology research in a large non-majors course
Learning ObjectivesStudents will be able to:- Read current scientific literature
- Formulate testable hypotheses
- Design an experimental procedure to test their hypothesis
- Make scientific observations
- Analyze and interpret data
- Communicate results visually and orally
