Kavli Affiliate: Terrence Sejnowski | Authors: Matthew Hur, Thomas Bartol, Padmini Rangamani, Terrence Sejnowski and Eric Mjolsness | Summary: There is a morphodynamic component to synaptic learning by which changes in dendritic (postsynaptic) spine head size are associated with the strengthening or weakening of the synaptic connection between two neurons, in response to the temporal […]

Kavli Affiliate: Douglas Nitz | Authors: Hin Wai Lui, Elizabeth R. Chrastil, Douglas A. Nitz and Jeffrey L. Krichmar | Summary: Humans and many animals possess the remarkable ability to navigate environments by seamlessly switching between first-person perspectives (FPP) and global map perspectives (GMP). However, the neural mechanisms that underlie this transformation remain poorly understood. […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jyoti Mishra and Dhakshin Ramanathan | Authors: Morteza Salimi, Milad Nazari, Jonathan Mishler, Mishra Jyoti and Dhakshin Ramanathan | Summary: Background Repetitive brain stimulation is hypothesized to bidirectionally modulate excitability, with low-frequency trains decreasing and high-frequency (>5 Hz) trains increasing activity. Most insights on the neuroplastic effects of repetitive stimulation protocols stem from […]
