Switching from tonic to burst firing creates an attractor in synaptic weight dynamics

The paper shows that switching between tonic and burst firing in neural networks creates a burst-induced attractor in synaptic weight dynamics, which stabilizes synapses and supports memory consolidation.

A new perspective on slow pacemaking in brain and heart

The paper identifies a conserved voltage-dependent pacemaker current essential for slow firing in neurons and cardiac cells, confirmed by models and experiments.

Two-stage synaptic plasticity enables memory consolidation during neuronal burst firing regimes

The paper introduces a two-stage synaptic plasticity rule that enables memory consolidation during burst firing regimes by stabilizing prior learning and improving generalization.

Robust switches in thalamic network activity require a timescale separation between sodium and T-type calcium channel activations
