The traditional view is that learning is based on the weakening or strengthening of the contacts between the nerve cells inside the brain. However, this has been challenged by new research findings from Lund University in Sweden. These indicate that there is also a third mechanism - a kind of clock function that gives individual nerve cells the ability to time their reactions.

Research Shows New Learning Mechanism for Individual Nerve Cells
The traditional view is that learning is based on the weakening or strengthening of the contacts between the nerve cells inside the brain. However, this has been challenged by new research findings from Lund University in Sweden. These indicate that there is also a third mechanism - a kind of clock function that gives individual nerve cells the ability to time their reactions.
