A gatekeeper for learning
> Upon learning a hippocampus-dependent associative task, perirhinal inputs might act as a gate to modulate the excitability of apical dendrites and the impact of the feedback stream on layer 5 pyramidal neurons of the primary somatosensory cortex.
๐ฒ In some sense, perirhinal inputs are like config files for learning.
