This study shows that prey capture learning during the critical period in mice enhances visual function through structural plasticity, including increased excitatory connectivity and spine turnover, which is absent in adults.

The paper investigates whether synaptic scaling and intrinsic homeostatic plasticity act redundantly or independently in rodent visual cortex, finding they can be independently recruited to stabilize different network features.

This study shows that learning in juvenile rats leads to a slow increase in firing rates in V1b neurons, driven by homeostatic plasticity mechanisms.

This study investigates how homeostatic plasticity mechanisms differ in mouse primary visual cortex during development and adulthood using DREADD-mediated activity suppression.
