How can #NeuralAssemblies remain stable while still learning new, overlapping representations?

Christoph Miehl & Julijana Gjorgjieva et al. propose contextual #dendritic gating of #plasticity as a circuit mechanism for flexible, assembly-based computation. The key idea: context-specific disinhibition opens selected dendritic branches for #learning, while protecting previously stored #assemblies from being overwritten:
