flag Researchers found how brains turn time-based signals into stable memories using combined short- and long-term synaptic changes.

flag Researchers at Tianjin University and international collaborators have identified a brain mechanism that converts sequences of neural activity over time into spatial patterns, enabling efficient information processing and storage. flag The study, published in PNAS, shows that long-term and short-term synaptic changes work together to transform dynamic inputs—like a melody—into stable representations, enhancing memory and noise resistance without enlarging neural networks. flag Supported by computational models and electrophysiological data from mouse and human neocortices, the findings reveal a "collaboration code" for temporal processing, offering insights for developing more efficient, interpretable artificial intelligence systems.
