Introduction to Neuroplasticity Defining Neuroplasticity Neuroplasticity, also known as neural plasticity or brain plasticity, represents the brain’s remarkable ability to reorganize itself by forming new neural connections throughout life. This adaptability allows the nervous system to adjust its activities in response to new situations or changes in the environment, a process that is essential for […]

Crossmodal plasticity: Recycling the multisensory scaffolding of functional brain networks
Introduction to Crossmodal Plasticity Defining Crossmodal Plasticity Crossmodal plasticity refers to the brain’s remarkable ability to reorganize and adapt its functions in response to sensory loss or deprivation. It is a form of neuroplasticity that enables the brain to repurpose areas typically dedicated to one sense, such as vision or hearing, to enhance the processing […]
Evolution
Introduction to Quantum Mechanics and Evolution Overview of Darwin’s Theory of Evolution Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution by natural selection is a cornerstone of modern biology. It posits that species evolve over time through a process of heritable genetic changes that are selected for by the environment. This theory explains the diversity of life on […]
