Most of the TAS2Rs are broadly tuned in terms of agonist activation.
This mechanism is likely broadly tuned and functions independently of experience.
He cites studies showing that cells in the right hemisphere are more "broadly tuned" than cells in the left hemisphere, with longer branches and more dendritic spines.
Li, Y.T., Liu, B.H., Chou, X.L., Zhang, L.I. & Tao, H.W. Strengthening of direction selectivity by broadly tuned and spatiotemporally slightly offset inhibition in mouse visual cortex.
Both techniques reveal components of RL motion that are more broadly tuned, more extensively nonlinear, and up to 10× larger than BM motion.
Thus, bitter is encoded independently of sweet and amino acids, and taste receptor cells are not broadly tuned across these modalities.
Moreover, these two dopaminergic cell types have different functional properties: the axon-bearing neurons are more intrinsically excitable than their axon-lacking neighbours, and for certain long-latency responses are more broadly tuned to odour stimuli.
At one or more sites, the plasticity mechanisms supporting decreases in VOR gain must be less synapse-specific, or affect neurons more broadly tuned for head rotation frequency, than the mechanisms supporting increases in gain.
With the capability to see the deepest layers they observed that layer 5 neurons are broadly tuned for orientation, meaning they respond to a wide variety of orientations, rather than just one or two specific ones.
The most surprising finding was that the subplate, a thin layer of mostly neural white-matter fibers, was home to a population of neurons with patterns of activity that were weakly and broadly tuned to the visual input.
We can then interpret the bunch of broadly tuned cells around the zero value of the shape index n as generally below the minimal uncertainty bound that allows a consistent detection of orientations.
