Structure and plasticity potential of neural networks in the cerebral cortex
Learning and memory formation in the brain depend on the plasticity of neural circuits. In the adult and developing cerebral cortex, this plasticity can result from the formation and elimination of dendritic spines. New synaptic contacts appear in the neuropil where the gaps between axonal and dendr...
