<i>In vivo</i> spike-timing-dependent plasticity in the optic tectum of<i> Xenopus laevis</i>

Spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP) is found <em>in vivo</em> in a variety of systems and species, but the first demonstrations of in vivo STDP were carried out in the optic tectum of Xenopus laevis embryos. Since then, the optic tectum has served as an excellent experimental model...
