synchronization

Stimuli can cause neuron sets to fire simultaneously {synchronization}, 40 to 100 milliseconds after stimulus. Neurons with overlapping same-type receptive fields have the most synchrony. Synchronous neuron activity is always in phase, not in opposite phase. Synchronous neuron signals do not encode information about space, objects, or time.
