Today at #Bernsteinconference is Anna Levina on intrinsic timescales of neural dynamics👏. Timescales can be estimated from any brain signals, spikes, local field potentials, rhythms(?). Longer time-scale dynamics is closer to the critical point, but sometimes having a shorter is useful behaviorally.

Today's highlight of the #Bernsteinconference is Richard Naud on learning. V. interesting!👏 1) bursting spiking can serve as a mechanism of learning, 2) errors are addressed by the neuron that should have been involved in the right choice and not by the neuron that was involved in the wrong choice.

Brain Rhythms Form the Brain’s Internal Language
Our world is filled with beautiful rhythms. Some of which we see and feel, such as the change of day and night and the rhythms of our music. Others are invisible to us—like radio waves, but are still very useful to our lives. In this article, I want to tell you about the rhythms we have in our brains—we do not feel them, yet they are crucial for us. I will explain what they are, what they do, and how they create the internal language of the brain. You will also get to know the special rhythms in your brain that help you remember what you read in this article!
