When an axon of cell A is near enough to excite a cell B and repeatedly or persistently takes part in firing it, some growth process or metabolic change takes place in one or both cells such that A's efficiency, as one of the cells firing B, is increased.

...of learning. One can paraphrase Hebbs postulate: hebbosomes respond to the patterns of firing where "cell A is near enough to excite a cell B and repeatedly or persistently takes part in firing it." Hebbosomes then specifically mediate and orchestrate the "growth process or metabolic change [that]... | |
