The input resistance is the baseline resistance of the neuron membrane, and like tau is one of the passive or subthreshold properties of the cell. A cell with high input resistance leads to a large voltage response (V=IR) and is referred to as "tight" as current doesn't easily leak out. Conversely, "leaky" neurons are those with low input resistance. The input resistance was calculated by measuring the slope of the V/I plot at subthreshold potentials.
