Positive reinforcement traps ideas in echo chambers, while weakening connections is key to spreading information.

A Northwestern University physics study shows that strong, repeated connections can trap ideas in feedback loops, limiting their spread. Using a model based on Hebbian learning, researchers found that ...

Recent breakthroughs in neuroscience reveal how the brain can reconfigure networks within seconds, learn from a single experience, and interface with soft, blood-grown materials or long-lived ...

A collaboration between SISSA’s Physics and Neuroscience groups has taken a step forward in understanding how memories are stored and retrieved in the brain. The study, recently published in Neuron, ...
