Biological organisms learn from interactions with their environment throughout their lifetime.
For artificial systems to successfully act and adapt in the real world, it is desirable to similarly …

The effects of propranolol in the treatment of anxiety disorders have not been systematically
evaluated previously. The aim was to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of …

Over 34 years since its conception, research in educational settings has found evidence for
the effectiveness of the 5E Instructional Model. Indeed, several studies have reported …

The processes of memory formation and storage are complex and highly dynamic. Once
memories are consolidated, they are not necessarily fixed but can be changed long after …

Memory reconsolidation is the process in which reactivated long-term memory (LTM)
becomes transiently sensitive to amnesic agents that are effective at consolidation. The …

Although reconsolidation opens up new avenues to erase excessive fear memory, subtle
boundary conditions put constraints on retrieval-induced plasticity. Reconsolidation may …

We focus on emerging roles for microglia in synaptic plasticity, cognition and disease. We
outline evidence that ramified microglia, traditionally thought to be functionally “resting”(ie …

Memories are not static imprints of past experience, but rather are dynamic entities which
enable us to predict outcomes of future situations and inform appropriate behaviours. In …

The ability to make predictions based on stored information is a general coding strategy. A
Prediction-Error (PE) is a mismatch between expected and current events. It was proposed …

Biological neural networks are systems of extraordinary computational capabilities shaped
by evolution, development, and lifelong learning. The interplay of these elements leads to …
