Limits of optimal decoding under synaptic coarse-tuning
Ori Hendler, Ronen Segev, Maoz Shamir
Sensory information propagates through successive processing stages in the brain, where synaptic weight patterns between stations determine how downstream neurons decode informatio…
Synaptic motility and functional stability in the whisker cortex
Nimrod Sherf, Maoz Shamir
The high motility of synaptic weights raises the question of how the brain can retain its functionality in the face of constant synaptic remodeling. Here we used the whisker system…
STDP and the distribution of preferred phases in the whisker system
Nimrod Sherf, Maoz Shamir
Rats and mice use their whiskers to probe the environment. By rhythmically swiping their whiskers back and forth they can detect the existence of an object, locate it, and identify…
Robust Rhythmogenesis in the Gamma Band via Spike Timing Dependent Plasticity
Gabi Socolovsky, Maoz Shamir
Rhythmic activity in the gamma band (30-100Hz) has been observed in numerous animal species ranging from insects to humans, and in relation to a wide range of cognitive tasks. Vari…
Multiplexing rhythmic information by spike timing dependent plasticity
Nimrod Sherf, Maoz Shamir
Rhythmic activity has been associated with a wide range of cognitive processes. Previous studies have shown that spike-timing-dependent plasticity can facilitate the transfer of rh…
