↵a Data from Hong et al., 2016. Experimental conditions (e.g., temperature) and recording parameters (e.g., membrane capacitance) for both studies are the same.
↵b Numeric values without the correction of –10 mV junction potential.
↵c Measured from APs in response to current injections 25% above threshold current.
↵d Five outliner neurons with reliability range >30 ms were removed.
