Here's a lovely #blueprint on a new study from our lab led by @royeyono.bsky.social.
tl;dr: it implies that there may be interneurons whose role is to normalize credit assignment signals during learning.

How do neural circuits in the brain implement normalization? 🧠
In our new paper, we show that just normalizing sensory input isn't enough. Crucially, we must also normalize the error signals! 🧵👇
Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2603.17676
Normalization is a critical operation in neural circuits. In the brain, there is evidence that normalization is implemented via inhibitory interneurons and allows neural populations to adjust to chang...
