This book is a colorful journey into the fascinatingly diverse
world of interneurons, an important class of highly heterogeneous
cells found in all cortical neuronal networks. Interneurons are
known to play key roles in many brain functions, from sensory
processing to neuronal oscillations linked to learning and memory.
The central aim of the volume is to provide new insights into the
striking degree of cellular diversity found in interneuronal
microcircuits. The book discusses the history of research into
interneuronal variability, the developmental origins of
interneuronal diversity, the functional roles of heterogeneity in
neuronal circuits, contemporary interneuronal classification
systems, and the genetic and homeostatic mechanisms that shape the
degree of cell to cell variability within interneuronal
populations. It elaborates on new ideas about interneuronal
diversity that rest upon theoretical and experimental results, with
arguments touching upon evolution, animal behavior, and the
mathematical theory of small world networks. This engaging volume
is invaluable to neuroscientists and others interested in how
neuronal newtworks function; electrical engineers, computational
modelers, and physicists interested in neuronal network theory;
neurologists and psychiatrists working on mechanisms of
neurological and psychiatric disorders; and students and trainees
in all of these fields.
