New paper online! How does plasticity at specific synapses drive specific forms of learning? We find that learning extradimensional rule shifts depends on strengthening long-range GABAergic projections from parvalbumin neurons to PFC-MD neurons in the contralateral PFC! www.cell.com/neuron/fullt...
While glutamatergic synaptic plasticity is believed to be a fundamental mechanism mediating learning, the behavioral significance of plasticity at cor…
