Description:	NIH Neuroscience Seminar Series During learning and development, the number and strength of synaptic inputs received by a neuron may change dramatically. While such changes are crucial in sculpting functional circuits and generating behavioral flexibility, they raise a compelling problem for the nervous system: that is, how do neurons and circuits maintain stability in their firing properties in the face of such dramatic synaptic reconfiguration?
