Real-time Plasticity Wiki

Welcome to the Real-time Plasticity Wiki
This Wiki relates primarily to real-time plasticity (RTP) that supports change in conscious experience. It was set up by Jim Beran around the time of his first public talk about RTP at the "Toward a Science of Consciousness" conference in Tucson in April 2012. In March 2013, he gave another public talk about RTP at the related TSC 2013 conference held at Dayalbagh Educational Institute near Agra, India. As of early February 2014, Jim is winding up work on this Wiki so that he can instead focus on a related but distinct area of research--evolution of neural circuits.

Jim's study of RTP led him to a conceptual framework that may prove useful to others who are interested in understanding consciousness. See the page titled Proposed Conceptual Framework for details. In addition to the definition there of "neural circuit", see the page titled Usage Examples of "Neural Circuit" and Related Terms for examples of how the term "neural circuit" is used.
