In Theory of Cortical Plasticity, Nobel Laureate Leon Cooper and his collaborators present a systematic development of the Bienenstock, Cooper and Munro (BCM) theory of synaptic plasticity, and discuss experiments that test both its assumptions and c

Model comparison is at the heart of all scientific methodologies. Progress is made in science by constructing many models (possibly of different complexities), testing them against measurements, and determining which of them explain the data the best

In a series of previous studies, we provided a stochastic description of a theory of synaptic plasticity. This theory, called BCM from the names of the three authors, has been formulated in two ways: the original formulation, where the plasticity thr

Records of carbon dioxide concentrations (partial pressure expressed as pCO2) over Earth’s history provide trends that arecritical to understand our changing world. To better constrain pCO 2 estimations, here we test organic pCO2 proxies against th

Fossil remains from algae are used to reconstruct 500 million years of atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations.
Past changes in the atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide (Pco2) have had a major impact on earth system dynamics; yet, recon

Ocular dominance (OD) plasticity is a robust paradigm for examining the functional consequences of synaptic plasticity. Previous experimental and theoretical results have shown that OD plasticity can be accounted for by known synaptic plasticity mech

This article introduces the problem of determining the probability that a rotating and bouncing cylinder (i.e., flipped coin) will land and come to rest on its edge. We present this problem and analysis as a practical, nontrivial example to introduce

The idea of energy balance used to explain the greenhouse effect and global warming is often confusing for students, primarily because the standard quantitative analysis uses many constants and units. A 'round unit' method is presented, which maintai

The sign and magnitude of bi-directional synaptic plasticity have been shown to depend on: the rate of presynaptic stimulation, the level of postsynaptic depolarization, and the precise relative timing between pre- and postsynaptic spikes. It has bee
