'''Temporal coding''' is a type of [[neural coding]] in which a neuron encodes information through the precise timing of [[action potential]]s, or spikes, on a millisecond time scale. Efforts have been made to differentiate the precise timing of spikes in a single neuron which encodes information about a stimulus from synchronized firing of neurons within a localized area. The latter is sometimes referred to as [[correlation coding]].<ref>Dayan P, Abbott LF. ''Theoretical Neuroscience: Computational and Mathematical Modeling of Neural Systems''.
