I'm pleased to share our new work, “Spatio-temporal organization of network activity patterns in the hippocampus”, out in
@cp-cellreports.bsky.social
! With Demi Brizee & David Dupret, we track how oscillations and spiking behaviour map onto hippocampal layers using an LFP-based embedding. (1/13)

We just pushed “Memory by a 1000 rules” onto bioRxiv, where we use clever
#ML
to find
#plasticity
quadruplets (EE, EI, IE, II) that learn basic stability in spiking nets. Why is it cool? We find 1000s!! of solutions, and they don’t just stabilise. They

Memory by a thousand rules: Automated discovery of functional multi-type plasticity rules reveals variety & degeneracy at the heart of learning
Synaptic plasticity is the basis of learning and memory, but the link between synaptic changes and neural function remains elusive. Here, we used automated search algorithms to obtain thousands of str...
