Does spike-timing-dependent synaptic plasticity couple or decouple neurons firing in synchrony?

Does spike-timing-dependent synaptic plasticity couple or decouple neurons firing in synchrony?

Spike synchronization is thought to have a constructive role for feature integration, attention, associativelearning, and the formation of bidirectionally connected Hebbian cell assemblies. By contrast, theoreticalstudies on spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP) report an inherently decoupling in...
