MODULATING EXCITATION THROUGH PLASTICITY AT INHIBITORY SYNAPSES

Learning is believed to depend on lasting changes in synaptic efficacy such as long-term potentiation and long-term depression. As a result, a profusion of studies has tried to elucidate the mechanisms underlying these forms of plasticity. Traditionally, experience-dependent changes at excitatory sy...
