A developmental sensitive period for spike timing-dependent plasticity in the retinotectal projection

The retinotectal projection in<em> Xenopus laevis</em> has been shown to exhibit correlation-based refinement of both anatomical and functional connectivity during development. Spike timing-dependent plasticity (STDP) is an appealing experimental model for correlation-based synaptic plas...
