Perspectives and Discussion - Systems Consolidation

Participate in a thought-provoking discussion on systems consolidation featuring all participants of the #brainlearn-c23 conference. Explore the long-standing question of timescales in the neurobiology of learning, examining how the brain associates events separated by seconds to weeks despite synaptic changes occurring within milliseconds. Delve into the molecular, cellular, and circuit-level mechanisms used by the brain to bridge multiple timescales of experience. Gain insights from leading scientists as they present up-to-date understandings of biological mechanisms supporting associative learning across different timescales. Complement the main program's computational focus with an emphasis on biological mechanisms, encouraging an integrated analysis of statistical learning spanning molecular, cellular, circuit, and behavioral-level phenomena. Recorded as part of the Timescales of Plasticity and Underlying Mechanisms conference at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics, this 1 hour 31 minute session offers a unique opportunity to engage with cutting-edge research in neuroscience and learning.
