Decoding Time With Long-Term Plasticity of Short-Term Plasticity - Dean Buonomano

Explore a conference talk on decoding time through long-term plasticity of short-term plasticity, presented by Dean Buonomano from UCLA. Delve into the neurobiology of learning and the challenge of bridging multiple timescales in associative learning. Examine how the brain associates events separated by seconds to weeks, despite synaptic changes typically occurring within milliseconds. Discover the latest research on molecular, cellular, and circuit-level mechanisms used by the brain to support learning across different timescales. Gain insights from this presentation, part of the "Timescales of Plasticity and Underlying Mechanisms" conference at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics. Understand how this research complements computational approaches and contributes to an integrated analysis of statistical learning across molecular, cellular, circuit, and behavioral levels.
