Hebbian Plasticity

Hebbian plasticity is a biological process that strengthens the connection between two neurons when they are activated together frequently. It’s often summarized as "cells that fire together, wire together." When if one neuron consistently signals another, the communication pathway between them becomes more efficient. This mechanism underlies learning and memory formation in the brain, allowing neural networks to adapt based on experiences. Essentially, it helps the brain optimize how information is stored and processed by reinforcing the links between neurons that work in sync.
