The combination of Hebbian and predictive plasticity learns invariant object representations in deep sensory networks
Recognition of objects from sensory stimuli is essential for survival. To that end, sensory networks in the brain must form object representations...

Coordinated drift of receptive fields in Hebbian/anti-Hebbian network models during noisy representation learning
Recent experiments have revealed that neural population codes in many brain areas continuously change even when animals have fully learned and stably...

Burst firing is required for induction of Hebbian LTP at lateral perforant path to hippocampal granule cell synapses
High frequency burst firing is critical in summation of back-propagating action potentials (APs) in dendrites, which may greatly depolarize dendritic...

Heterosynaptic plasticity-induced modulation of synapses
Plasticity is a common feature of synapses that is stated in different ways and occurs through several mechanisms. The regular action of the brain...

Multifrequency Hebbian plasticity in coupled neural oscillators
We study multifrequency Hebbian plasticity by analyzing phenomenological models of weakly connected neural networks. We start with an analysis of a...

Prolongation of Cerebral Activation in Response to a Stimulus as a Probable Mechanism of Associative Plasticity during Semantic Learning
Remembering the meanings of new spoken words is believed to occur as a result of associative learning. For example, this is how words denoting...

Plasticity of the Cerebellum
Since 1990s, long-term depression of (LTD) at parallel fiber–Purkinje cell synapses has been regarded as a cellular phenomenon for motor learning....

Plasticity in the Receptive Fields by Microstimulation
In Chap. 11, Pedro Maldonado describes his joint work with his PhD advisor, George Gerstein, demonstrating plasticity in receptive field properties,...

Co-dependent excitatory and inhibitory plasticity accounts for quick, stable and long-lasting memories in biological networks
The brain’s functionality is developed and maintained through synaptic plasticity. As synapses undergo plasticity, they also affect each other. The...

Rapid compensatory plasticity revealed by dynamic correlated activity in monkeys in vivo
To produce adaptive behavior, neural networks must balance between plasticity and stability. Computational work has demonstrated that network...

Environmental Enrichment in Real and Virtual Realms Fosters Neural Plasticity Related to Learning and Memory Processes
The new perspective of embodied cognition has broadened the horizons of cognition-related neural activity up to embracing the whole body and its...

Brain is modulated by neuronal plasticity during postnatal development
Neuroplasticity is referred to the ability of the nervous system to change its structure or functions as a result of former stimuli. It is a...

Mechanisms and Functions of Activity-Regulated Cytoskeleton-Associated Protein in Synaptic Plasticity
Activity-regulated cytoskeleton-associated protein (Arc) is one of the most important regulators of cognitive functions in the brain regions. As a...

CaMKII: a central molecular organizer of synaptic plasticity, learning and memory
Calcium–calmodulin (CaM)-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) is the most abundant protein in excitatory synapses and is central to synaptic...

Retinoic acid-mediated homeostatic plasticity in the nucleus accumbens core contributes to incubation of cocaine craving
RationaleIncubation of cocaine craving refers to the progressive intensification of cue-induced craving during abstinence from cocaine...

Psychedelics promote plasticity by directly binding to BDNF receptor TrkB
Psychedelics produce fast and persistent antidepressant effects and induce neuroplasticity resembling the effects of clinically approved...
