A big mystery in brain research is what are the neural mechanisms that drive individual differences in higher order cognitive processes. Here we present a new theoretical framework w/ @brody_lab @mikio_aoi @SussilloDavid @ValerioMante @jpillowtime

How does the hippocampus build up/replay a "clean" map of the world from corrupted experiences? Using 3 levels of modeling, we (joint w/@dhadjia1 @SolteszLab) propose a simple, synapse-level mechanism: Hebbian plasticity of I→E synapses.
Check it out!
