A novel algorithm allowed for the continuous tracking of neurons throughout early postnatal development, revealing a transition in neural firing statistics coinciding with the onset of behaviour-dependent activity.
Holographic neuronal stimulation shows that auditory cortex neurons with shared functional properties rapidly adjust their responses during sensory processing, revealing a circuit-level mechanism that regulates overall network activity balance.

Children show less robust memory retention overnight and after 2 weeks, with memories transforming more rapidly from detailed to gist-like neural representations, revealing less stable consolidation mechanisms than in adults.
