Examining brain plasticity and its implications for development, aging, and brain injury recovery.

Phenotypic plasticity is the ability of one genome to develop distinct phenotypes in response to biotic or abiotic environmental stimuli. Notorious examples of phenotypic plasticity in plants include ...

A collaborative initiative with American Nutraceutical Corp. advancing structured models of neural adaptation and ...

In uncertain times, cognitive science shows how simple tasks like Tetris may help women interrupt trauma and reclaim mental ...

Researchers have demonstrated that repeated listening to personally meaningful music induces beneficial brain plasticity in patients with mild cognitive impairment or early Alzheimer's disease.

The phrase "neurons that fire together, wire together" describes the neural plasticity seen in human brains, but neurons grown in a dish don't seem to follow these rules. Neurons that are cultured ...

This bioengineering breakthrough has found a way to make neurons grown in a dish react just like the real thing. "Neurons that fire together, wire together" describes the neural plasticity seen in ...

Making ductile ceramics is a hard task. Plasticity in ceramics is rarely observed and typically requires special conditions such as extreme temperatures to be feasible. Therefore, instead of denting, ...
