+Neurons filter their subthreshold input signals. While many cells show low-pass filter characteristics, a prominent number of cell types exhibits band-pass-like filters. \\

+====Influence of ion channel cooperativity on neuronal dynamics====
+Since Hodgkin and Huxley’s model of action potential initiation, the prevailing assumption is
+that ion channels act independently. They change their open probability in response to a common signal such as the membrane voltage, but do not directly influence each other. Nevertheless, evidence for additional interactions between channels accumulates. We investigate consequences of interactions between voltage-dependent ion channels for the dynamics of excitable membranes. In particular, we want to understand how cooperative and anticooperative gating between ion channels changes basic sub- and suprathreshold voltage dynamics.\\
