Glial ensheathment of inhibitory synapses drives hyperactivity and increases correlations
Nellie Garcia, Gregory Handy · COSYNE 2025
Recent years have witnessed a growing body of experimental evidence highlighting the active role of glial cells in modulating neuronal dynamics. Glial cells, including astrocytes and microglia, have been found to influence various aspects of neuronal function, such as regulating neurotransmitter concentrations and ion buffering. Yet, the mechanisms through which glial cells communicate with and affect neighboring neurons remain unclear. In this study, we seek to develop a computational model to explore recent experimental findings which demonstrated that glial cells physically wrap around, o
