Journal ArticleDOI

Retroactive modulation of spike timing-dependent plasticity by dopamine

TL;DR: It is shown that dopamine, a positive reinforcement signal, can retroactively convert hippocampal timing-dependent synaptic depression into potentiation, and this finding identifies a biologically plausible mechanism for solving the ‘distal reward problem’.
Book ChapterDOI

The roles of GABAB receptors in cortical network activity.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated how the slow time course of GABA(B) receptor-mediated inhibition is well suited to help mediate the slow oscillation, to modulate the power and spatial profile of gamma oscillations, and to moderate the relative spike timing of individual neurons during theta oscillations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Presynaptic Spike Timing-Dependent Long-Term Depression in the Mouse Hippocampus

TL;DR: The results show that CA3-CA1 synapses display both NMDA receptor-dependent t-LTP and t- lTD during development and identify a presynaptic form of hippocampal t- LTD similar to that previously described at neocortical synapses during development.
Journal ArticleDOI

Activity-Dependent Downscaling of Subthreshold Synaptic Inputs during Slow-Wave-Sleep-like Activity In Vivo

TL;DR: It is found that this novel activity-dependent and input-specific downscaling mechanism has two important computational advantages: improved signal-to-noise ratio, and preservation of previously stored information.
