By Farzad Hoque, Class of 2028 Understanding how the brain balances learning and memory is one of neuroscience’s biggest challenges. New research uncovers how synaptic plasticity and metastable dynamics in cortical circuits work together in neural networks, shedding light on the brain’s remarkable ability to adapt and reorganize. Dr.Yang and Dr.La Camera at Stony Brook University discovered synaptic weights stabilize near a critical threshold, enabling … Continue reading The Neural Network Memory Update
