Answer to the quizzes in the slides of week 4

In slide 30 quiz 4.1

Part B last choice: when we say above/below bifurcation what do we mean ? Is below same as "The current is low enough so that our fixed point is stable" ?

In slide 53 quiz 4.3:

For the first choice to be correct it seems we need the time constant separation ?

The second choice seems also incorrect since even without the time constant separation we would still have regions in the w-u plot that would correspond to firing/not firing so we still have a threshold. right ?

P.S is it possible to upload the answers to the quizzes with explanations for this week and next weeks.

Ok I just realized we do need the time constant separation for the FitzHugh–Nagumo model to have a threshold.

par Valentin Marc Schmutz,

Thanks for your question.

From now on, the reference material for the lectures will be the video lectures. As a consequence, we won't treat the quizzes anymore.
