A triplet spike-timing–dependent plasticity model generalizes the Bienenstock–Cooper–Munro rule to higher-order spatiotemporal correlations

J Gjorgjieva, C Clopath, J Audet… - Proceedings of the …, 2011 - National Acad Sciences

Bidirectional coupling between astrocytes and neurons mediates learning and dynamic coordination in the brain: a multiple modeling approach

JJ Wade, LJ McDaid, J Harkin, V Crunelli, JAS Kelso - PloS one, 2011 - journals.plos.org
In recent years research suggests that astrocyte networks, in addition to nutrient and waste
