Before revision: Fast dendritic adaptation on timescales of few seconds was experimentally observed indicating Intrinsic plasticity Intrinsic plasticity is a form of activity-dependent plasticity distinct from synaptic plasticity, which involves changes at the synapse between two neurons rather than changes in the electrical properties within a single neuron.
After revision: a potential meaningful global learning mechanismFast dendritic adaptation on timescales of few seconds was experimentally observed indicating Intrinsic plasticity Intrinsic plasticity is a form of activity-dependent plasticity distinct from synaptic plasticity, which involves changes at the synapse between two neurons rather than changes in the electrical properties within a single neuron.
