Talk:Synaptic plasticity
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This summary is aweful. Misses the key points and focuses individual achievements that are irrelevant such as changes in ion channels. Even that is not explained well. Sure LTP protocols *can* result in more than just LTP of the synaptic strength, called EPSP-to-spike potentiation (an increase in the probability that a spike will be triggered for the same input strength). That indeed relies on ion channel plasticity amongst other things.
Please someone, fix this!
I agree. This article seems overly technical. JohnJohn 18:56, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
