  • Synaptic input sequence discrimination on behavioral timescales mediated by reaction-diffusion chemistry in dendrites.

    abstract::Sequences of events are ubiquitous in sensory, motor, and cognitive function. Key computational operations, including pattern recognition, event prediction, and plasticity, involve neural discrimination of spatio-temporal sequences. Here, we show that synaptically-driven reaction-diffusion pathways on dendrites can pe...
