Learning & the Hebbian Synapse
  1. Physiological learning
    1. Pavlov concept of classical conditioning
      1. led to Lashley search for connections in cerebral cortex
        1. also stimulated Hebb to propose mechanism for change at a synapse
          1. an axon that has successfully stimulated cell B in the past becomes even more successful in the future.
            1. A synapse that increases effectiveness because of simultaneous activity in presynaptic and postsynaptic neurones called Hebbian Synapse
              1. In development of visual system if axon from left eye fires at same time as one from right eye
                1. neuron in visual cortex increases response to both of them
                  1. such synapses may also be critical for many kinds of associative learning
                    1. Neuroscientists have discovered much about mechanisms of Hebbian Synapses.
