    Description

    Synaptic plasticity is assumed to be a key biological substrate of learning, memory, and neural circuit development. Two forms of plasticity are thought to enable neurons to integrate recent activity changes without veering into extreme hypoactivity or hyperactivity. This includes Hebbian positive feedback to strengthen active synapses, long-term potentiation(LTP), and diminish less active ones, long-term...
