Engram cell connectivity as a mechanism for information encoding and memory function

Information derived from experiences is incorporated into the brain as changes to ensembles of cells, termed engram cells, which allow memory storage and recall. The mechanism by which those changes hold specific information is unclear. Here, we test the h ...

A theory of memory consolidation and synaptic pruning in cortical circuits

Georgios Iatropoulos

Over the course of a lifetime, the human brain acquires an astonishing amount of semantic knowledge and autobiographical memories, often with an imprinting strong enough to allow detailed information to be recalled many years after the initial learning exp ...

Assemblies, synapse clustering and network topology interact with plasticity to explain structure-function relationships of the cortical connectome

James Gonzalo King, Eilif Benjamin Muller, Michael Reimann, Marwan Muhammad Ahmed Abdellah, Giuseppe Chindemi, Pramod Shivaji Kumbhar, András Ecker, Daniela Egas Santander, Ioannis Magkanaris, Sirio Bolaños Puchet, Jorge Blanco Alonso, James Bryden Isbister

Synaptic plasticity underlies the brain’s ability to learn and adapt. While experiments in brain slices have revealed mechanisms and protocols for the induction of plasticity between pairs of neurons, how these synaptic changes are coordinated in biologica ...

Linking connectivity of deep brain stimulation of nucleus accumbens area with clinical depression improvements: a retrospective longitudinal case series

Dimitri Nestor Alice Van De Ville, Katrin Petermann, Thuy Anh Khoa Nguyen, Maria Giulia Preti, Simona Leserri

Treatment-resistant depression is a severe form of major depressive disorder and deep brain stimulation is currently an investigational treatment. The stimulation's therapeutic effect may be explained through the functional and structural connectivities be ...

Principles of Network Plasticity in Neocortical Microcircuits

András Ecker

Synaptic plasticity underlies our ability to learn and adapt to the constantly changing environment. The phenomenon of synapses changing their efficacy in an activity-dependent manner is often studied in small groups of neurons in vitro or indirectly throu ...

Noninvasive theta-burst stimulation of the human striatum enhances striatal activity and motor skill learning

Elena Beanato, Pablo Maceira Elvira, Esra Neufeld, Friedhelm Christoph Hummel, Takuya Morishita, Maximilian Jonas Wessel, Chang-Hyun Park, Traian Popa, Pierre Theopistos Vassiliadis, Pauline Menoud, Fabienne Windel

The stimulation of deep brain structures has thus far only been possible with invasive methods. Transcranial electrical temporal interference stimulation (tTIS) is a novel, noninvasive technology that might overcome this limitation. The initial proof-of-co ...

Longitudinal evaluation of the mechanisms supporting post-stroke motor recovery using TMS-EEG coupling

Andéol Geoffroy Cadic-Melchior

Stroke is the main source of long-lasting disability, affecting dominantly motor functions. The extent and course of recovery are highly heterogeneous between patients, with a minority of patients fully recovering from their initial impairments, leaving 85 ...
