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:

In mouse #BarrelCortex, slow recurrent background fluctuations appear to compensate for the tiny dendrites of L4 spiny stellate #neurons, allowing even single #thalamocortical #spikes to be reliably represented at the population level with millisecond precision.
