LTP Induction Boosts Glutamate Spillover by Driving Withdrawal of Perisynaptic Astroglia.

abstract：:The primary visual cortex has a map of multiple visual parameters whose topographic relations remain poorly understood. A new study (Nauhaus et al., 2016) reveals a nearly geometric map-topography that coexists within a remarkably precise representation of visual space. ...
