Effect of GABAergic inhibition on odorant concentration coding in mushroom body intrinsic neurons of the honeybee

Kenyon cells, the intrinsic neurons of the insect mushroom body, have the intriguing property of responding in a sparse way to odorants. Sparse neuronal codes are often invariant to changes in stimulus intensity and duration, and sparse coding often depends on global inhibition. We tested if this is...
