| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
What is the key feature in our brain during the awake? Is there any differences between excitatory and inhibitory neurons?
To address this issue, we recorded population activities both in awake and anesthetized conditions using transgenic rodents.We found that the activity of inhibitory neurons increased and decay time of excitatory neurons became faster.We proved that these behaviors could be explained by cholinergic modulation system.
