(A) Mesoscopic model of coupled neuronal populations reproducing the activity of two (or more) populations of neurons interacting through excitatory synaptic connections. Each population contains pyramidal cells and local interneurons projecting either to the perisomatic or dendritic region of pyramidal cells. (B) Simulated signals obtained for gradual disinhibition in both neuronal populations (see text for details). This neuronal population model is available at: http://senselab.med.yale.edu/modeldb/showmodel.asp?model=97983.
