    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    This study explores neuronal assemblies in active brains, revealing that rapid firing correlations stem from changing neural connections or influences from unobserved neuron groups. Static connectivity within these pools is key.

    Main Results:

    Related Experiment Videos

  • Dynamic firing correlations can arise from fluctuating synaptic strengths within an assembly.
  • Alternatively, dynamic correlations may result from the collective activity of a large, unobserved pool of neurons.
  • The underlying static connectivity of the larger neuronal pool significantly influences these dynamic effects.
  • Conclusions:

    • The dynamic nature of neuronal assemblies is shaped by both internal synaptic plasticity and external network interactions.
    • Understanding these factors is crucial for interpreting neuronal activity and assembly organization.
    • Static connectivity in larger neuronal networks plays a critical role in shaping observable assembly dynamics.
