Synaptic potentiation facilitates memory-like attractor dynamics in cultured in vitro hippocampal networks.

Collective rhythmic dynamics from neurons is vital for cognitive functions such as memory formation but how neurons self-organize to produce such activity is not well understood. Attractor-based computational models have been successfully implemented as a theoretical framework for memory storage in...
