This useful study presents a biologically realistic, large-scale cortical model of the rat's non-barrel somatosensory cortex, investigating synaptic plasticity of excitatory connections under varying ...

The human brain is known to store various memories for long periods of time, progressively learning from new experiences and ...

Scientists have unveiled a compact 28×28 synaptic device array that mimics the human visual system, integrating sensing, memory, and processing for real-time image recognition. This innovation ...

Lledo and colleagues report that one subset of excitatory synapses onto adult-born granule cells in the mouse olfactory bulb shows long-term potentiation. This property, however, fades as the ...

Synaptic plasticity and development Formation of neuronal circuits is a dynamic process of rapid and concurrent formation and elimination of synaptic connections. During this early development ...

22 May 2007. One reason to study how brain systems develop is to understand how developmental and neurodegenerative diseases sabotage them. As an example, Alzheimer researchers might want to pay ...

Dopamine and Synaptic Plasticity Link Sleepless Night to Temporary Reversal of Depression November 2, 2023 People who have pulled an all-nighter may be familiar with that “tired and wired ...
