New learning mechanism for individual nerve cells

30 septiembre 2014

Learning is based on the strengthening or weakening of the contacts between the nerve cells in the brain — this has been the traditional understanding. However, this has been challenged by new research findings. These indicate that there is also a third mechanism — a kind of clock function that gives individual nerve cells the ability to time their reactions.
