Everyday events are easy to forget, but unpleasant ones can remain engraved in the brain. A new study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences identifies a neural mechanism ...
Hebbian theory, a neuroscientific explanation of synaptic plasticity, may offer insights for advisors seeking to protect clients against their bad investing habits. In a nutshell, the brain is ...
Long-term potentiation (LTP) was investigated in the mammalian entorhinal cortex by using two in vitro preparations, the isolated brain and the entorhinal cortex slice. Hebbian and non-Hebbian types ...
A longstanding question in neuroscience is how mammalian brains, including ours, adapt to external environments, information and experiences. In a study published in Nature, researchers at the Jan and ...
Every time you master a new recipe, remember a phone number, or finally figure out how to fold a fitted sheet, your brain is learning. But new research shows that the brain learns in a more complex ...
In his 1949 book Organization of Behavior, neuropsychologist Donald Hebb described how pathways in the brain are formed and reinforced through repetition. The more we do a particular action, feel a ...

Researchers have discovered the mechanistic steps underlying a new type of synaptic plasticity called behavioral timescale synaptic plasticity (BTSP). The study reveals how the entorhinal cortex (EC) ...
