White Matter Plasticity Keeps the Brain in Tune: Axons Conduct While Glia Wrap

Precise timing of neuronal inputs is crucial for brain circuit function and development, where it contributes critically to experience-dependent plasticity. Myelination therefore provides an important adaptation mechanism for vertebrate circuits. Despite its importance to circuit activity, the inter...
