Short-term #synaptic #plasticity (#STP) transiently modulates synaptic strength based on recent activity. #ShortTermDepression #STD reduces efficacy during repeated activity, while #ShortTermFacilitation #STF can enhance responses to closely spaced #spikes. These dynamics shape #NeuralProcessing, #filtering, and synaptic #homeostasis. Here's a short #Python implementation and simulation in #NESTSimulator:

#Testosterone #therapy in #trans #men results in shifts in the #neuralprocessing of #emotion, #study finds.

#TransMen showed neural activity similar to cisgender #women initially, while after 6-10 months of #Gender Affirming #hormonetherapy, they showed neural activity similar to #cisgender #men. Cisgender Women with higher testosterone levels did not develop these changes.
