Homeostatic Synaptic Scaling

Homeostatic Synaptic Scaling is a neurobiological regulatory mechanism that belongs to the class of synaptic plasticity processes, differing from other forms by uniformly adjusting the strength of synaptic connections across neuronal networks to stabilize overall activity levels in response to prolonged changes in neural input.
