The paper investigates how Hebbian-like plasticity and stochastic synaptic changes contribute to representational drift in mouse auditory cortex neurons.

The paper shows that the structure of a representational map in the auditory cortex is temporarily disrupted by neuron loss but recovers through plasticity of previously unresponsive neurons.

This study shows that chromatin reorganizes at the nucleus scale in neurons in response to stimuli, enabling rapid transcriptional changes for memory consolidation.
