Energetically efficient learning in neuronal networks (2023)
Journal Article
Pache, A., & van Rossum, M. C. (2023). Energetically efficient learning in neuronal networks. Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 83, Article 102779. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.conb.2023.102779

Human and animal experiments have shown that acquiring and storing information can require substantial amounts of metabolic energy. However, computational models of neural plasticity only seldom take this cost into account, and might thereby miss an... Read More about Energetically efficient learning in neuronal networks.

Rule Abstraction Is Facilitated by Auditory Cuing in REM Sleep (2023)
Journal Article
Pereira, S. I. R., Santamaria, L., Andrews, R., Schmidt, E., Van Rossum, M. C., & Lewis, P. (2023). Rule Abstraction Is Facilitated by Auditory Cuing in REM Sleep. Journal of Neuroscience, 43(21), 3838-3848. https://doi.org/10.1523/jneurosci.1966-21.2022

Sleep facilitates abstraction, but the exact mechanisms underpinning this are unknown. Here, we aimed to determine whether triggering reactivation in sleep could facilitate this process. We paired abstraction problems with sounds, then replayed these... Read More about Rule Abstraction Is Facilitated by Auditory Cuing in REM Sleep.
