Abstract
Definition. The phase-of-firing code is a neural coding scheme whereby neurons encode information using the time at which they fire spikes within a cycle of the ongoing oscillatory pattern of network activity. This coding scheme may allow neurons to use their temporal pattern of spikes to encode information that is not encoded in their firing rate.
