Self-healing codes: How stable neural populations can track continually reconfiguring neural representations [Neuroscience]

As an adaptive system, the brain must retain a faithful representation of the world while continuously integrating new information. Recent experiments have measured population activity in cortical and hippocampal circuits over many days and found that patterns of neural activity associated with fixed behavioral variables and percepts change dramatically over...
