This underscores its crucial role in brain plasticity and the reorganization of tactile information. These findings could provide a better understanding of how the brain of a person born without a ...

Scientists are working on breaking the physical limits of what semiconductors can do, merging human brain neurons with ...

Neuroscientists believe that synaptic plasticity, as these changes are called, plays an important role in storing memories. However, the rules governing when and how much synapses change are not well ...

Synaptic plasticity is the basis of information storage in the brain. Two of the most studied forms of plasticity, long-term potentiation (LTP) and long-term depression (LTD), involve both ...

Neuronal plasticity is a fundamental process in neuronal development and recovery from brain disorders. The Trophin lab focuses on the role of neurotrophic factors, particularly Brain-Derived ...

At the Cognitive Brain Research Unit (CBRU), at University of Helsinki, we investigate human auditory and crossmodal cognition, as well as their impairments and plasticity. The main research areas are ...

In a study published today in Nature Communications, the Development, Plasticity, and Reprogramming of Sensory Circuits laboratory, led by Guillermina López-Bendito, has demonstrated that the ...
