[HTML][HTML] The persistence and transience of memory
BA Richards, PW Frankland - Neuron, 2017 - cell.com
The predominant focus in the neurobiological study of memory has been on remembering (persistence).
However, recent studies have considered the neurobiology of forgetting (…

Hippocampal neurogenesis regulates forgetting during adulthood and infancy
Throughout life, new neurons are continuously added to the dentate gyrus. As this continuous
addition remodels hippocampal circuits, computational models predict that neurogenesis …

[HTML][HTML] Catalyzing next-generation artificial intelligence through neuroai
Neuroscience has long been an essential driver of progress in artificial intelligence (AI). We
propose that to accelerate progress in AI, we must invest in fundamental research in NeuroAI…

Burst-dependent synaptic plasticity can coordinate learning in hierarchical circuits
Synaptic plasticity is believed to be a key physiological mechanism for learning. It is well
established that it depends on pre- and postsynaptic activity. However, models that rely solely …

Learning function from structure in neuromorphic networks
The connection patterns of neural circuits in the brain form a complex network. Collective
signalling within the network manifests as patterned neural activity and is thought to support …

Patterns across multiple memories are identified over time
Memories are not static but continue to be processed after encoding. This is thought to allow
the integration of related episodes via the identification of patterns. Although this idea lies at …
