Structural homeostasis in the nervous system: A balancing act for wiring plasticity and stability

Experience-dependent modifications of neural circuits provide the cellular basis for functional adaptation and learning, while presenting significant challenges to the stability of neural networks. The nervous system copes with these perturbations through a variety of compensatory mechanisms with d...
