How researchers see this paper

The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Synaptic weight decay with selective consolidation enables fast learning without catastrophic forgetting (2019, background): “Inhibition of the axon initial segment that shunts the spike trigger mechanism has been found at various types of neurons (Somogyi et al., 1983; Douglas and Martin, 1990).”
Rhythms of the brain (2006, methodology): “It was Somogyi who, using his innovative combination of Golgi sections and electron microscopy, recognized that all boutons terminate on the axon initial segment of pyramidal cells (Somogyi et al., 1983).”
Morpho-physiological Criteria Divide Dentatecc Gyrus Interneurons into Classes (2013, background): “Because AAs form only 10–15% of the total population of perisoma-inhibiting interneurons in the hippocampus (Somogyi et al., 1983; Baude et al., 2007), we expected that most of our class M1 cells are BC-like cells, (characterized by an “orange code” in Figs.”
Defined types of cortical interneurone structure space and spike timing in the hippocampus (2005, background): “It provides GABAergic synapses exclusively to the axon initial segments of up to 1200 pyramidal cells (Somogyi et al. 1983; Li et al. 1992) acting on GABAA receptors (Buhl et al.”
