Abstract

By using dynamic clamp to generate synaptic inputs, we demonstrate the deficiency of the traditional slope-and-intercept method for the determination of effective synaptic conductances using somatic voltage clamp, and and we test the effectiveness of the intercept method for the measurement of effective conductance.
