Talk:Cognitive inhibition

McCulloch early contribution to neural inhibition?
Should we mention McCulloch's early contribution in that field? He contributed to early cybernetics. "McCulloch bubbled with ideas. In one co-written paper, 'A Logical Calculus of Ideas Immanent in Nervous Activity' (W. S. McCulloch and W. Pitts Bull. Math. Biophys. 5, 115–133; 1943), he argued that neurons must be capable of inhibition as well as excitation. If not, they would compute only a very small class of 'monotonic' functions. McCulloch told me that neurophysiologists of his time rejected this idea because inhibition had never been observed. His prediction — that inhibition exists in the brain — was later proved experimentally." from an article in nature. Mytheory (talk) 22:04, 24 December 2022 (UTC)
