Encoding of Sensory Signals Through Balanced Ionotropic Receptor Dynamics and Voltage Dependent Membrane Noise

Encoding behaviorally relevant stimuli in a noisy background is critical for animals to survive in their natural environment. We identify core biophysical and synaptic mechanisms that permit the encoding of low frequency signals in pyramidal neurons of the weakly electric fish Apteronotus leptorhync...
