Stanford Bio-X Seminar: Tobias Bonhoeffer - "How Experience Changes the Circuitry of the Brain"
Stanford Bio-X Seminar
One of the most fundamental properties of the brain is its ability to adapt rapidly to environmental changes. This is achieved mainly by changes in the synaptic connectivity between individual nerve cells. Synapses can be modulated in their these, both from a cellular perspective and from a systems perspective, in which we study how functional and structural changes in synaptic connections support experience-dependent plasticity and learning.
