Neurons {interneuron}| can connect across two nerve pathways. After pathway neuron excites them, interneurons typically inhibit or excite other-pathway neurons. Interneurons can detect correlations among local neuron signals. They note constancies and covariances between pathways. Symmetric connections coordinate pathway neurons in ganglia and cortex, especially in topographical maps. Asymmetric inhibitory connections among neurons and interneurons allow associative learning. Interneurons arose from neuron duplication.
