In this review written in collaboration with colleagues at UCSD, RIKEN, and the Technion, Mike explores the mechanisms underlying motor learning across spatial and temporal scales. Recent findings in the dynamic regulation of dendritic spines, the role of perisynaptic astrocyte processes in maintaining synaptic stability, the functional diversity among pyramidal neuron subtypes, and more are all discussed.
