Representational drift: Emerging theories for continual learning and experimental future directions
Recent work has revealed that the neural activity patterns correlated with sensation,
cognition, and action often are not stable and instead undergo large scale changes over …

Imbalance between firing homeostasis and synaptic plasticity drives early-phase Alzheimer's disease
During recent years, the preclinical stage of Alzheimer's disease (AD) has become a major
focus of research. Continued failures in clinical trials and the realization that early …

[HTML][HTML] Dynamic reorganization of neuronal activity patterns in parietal cortex
Neuronal representations change as associations are learned between sensory stimuli and
behavioral actions. However, it is poorly understood whether representations for learned …

Stimulus-dependent representational drift in primary visual cortex
TD Marks, MJ Goard - Nature communications, 2021 - nature.com
To produce consistent sensory perception, neurons must maintain stable representations of
sensory input. However, neurons in many regions exhibit progressive drift across days …

[HTML][HTML] Cortical circuit dynamics are homeostatically tuned to criticality in vivo
Homeostatic mechanisms stabilize neuronal activity in vivo, but whether this process gives
rise to balanced network dynamics is unknown. Here, we continuously monitored the …
