Hebb's Rule
Hebb's Rule is a principle in neuroscience that explains how connections between neurons strengthen through repeated activation. It is often summarized as "cells that fire together, wire together." This means that when two neurons are activated simultaneously, the synapse connecting them becomes stronger, making it easier for them to communicate in the future.
This rule is fundamental to understanding learning and memory. As experiences are repeated, the neural pathways associated with those experiences become more efficient. Hebb's Rule highlights the importance of practice and repetition in forming lasting memories and skills.
