The role of network interactions in timing-dependent plasticity within the human motor cortex induced by paired associative stimulation

Spike timing-dependent plasticity (STDP) has been suggested as one of the key mechanism underlying learning and memory. Due to its importance, timing-dependent plasticity studies have been approached in the living human brain by means of non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) protocols such as paired...
