Intrinsic firing patterns of diverse neocortical neurons
... Neurons of the neocortex are not physiologically homogeneous ~-14. Three basic types of intrinsic physiology have been recognized, and our terms for them are: regular-spiking (RS), fast-spiking (FS) and intrinsically bursting (IB).

Subventricular zone

The subventricular zone (SVZ) is a paired brain structure situated throughout the lateral walls of the lateral ventricles. It is composed of four distinct layers of variable thickness and cell density, as well as cellular composition. Along with the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus, the SVZ is one of two places where neurogenesis has been found to occur in the adult mammalian brain.
