neural excitability and bifurcations

Neural excitability refers to the ability of a neuron to generate electrical signals, or action potentials, in response to various stimuli. It is a measure of how easily a neuron can be activated. Bifurcations, on the other hand, are points of qualitative change in the behavior of a neural system. They occur when small changes in the input to a system cause a dramatic change in its output, leading to the emergence of new states or patterns of activity. In simpler terms, neural excitability refers to a neuron's ability to fire electrical signals, while bifurcations describe sudden changes in the neuron's behavior due to small changes in the input.
