While several mathematical rules have been developed for plasticity both at excitatory and inhibitory synapses, it has been difficult to make such rules co-exist in network models. Recently the group of the guest has explored how co-dependent plasticity rules can remedy the situation and, for example, assure that long-term memories can be stored in excitatory synapses while inhibitory synapses assure long-term stability. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/theoretical-neuroscience-podcast-6657149/episodes/on-co-dependent-excitatory-and-inhibitory-plasticity-with-tim-vogels-30/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/theoretical-neuroscience-podcast-6657149/on-co-dependent-excitatory-and-inhibitory-plasticity-with-tim-vogels-30.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
