Rewiring Cortex: Functional Plasticity of the Auditory Cortex during Development
1. INTRODUCTION How does the primary auditory cortex (A1) derive its function? Is it primarily determined by intrinsic factors expressed within cortex (i.e. molecular gradients, patterns of gene expression) or extrinsic factors that originate outside cortex (i.e. sensory experience)? This is a pivotal issue for understanding the development and function of A1, yet one that is difficult to addre...
متن کاملthe effect of functional/notional approach on the proficiency level of efl learners and its evaluation through functional test
in fact, this study focused on the following questions: 1. is there any difference between the effect of functional/notional approach and the structural approaches to language teaching on the proficiency test of efl learners? 2. can a rather innovative language test referred to as "functional test" ge devised so so to measure the proficiency test of efl learners, and thus be as much reliable an...
15 صفحه اولDevelopment and Plasticity of the Auditory Cortex
From early development to adulthood, the brain is continuously shaped by the interactions of genetic and environmental factors. Neural plasticity allows the brain to adapt to continuous changes in our environment. It takes place in our everyday life and determines the functional organization and reorganization of the brain. Abnormalities in such processing may result in brain dysfunction and st...
متن کاملAuditory Plasticity: Vocal Output Shapes Auditory Cortex
Studies in humans and songbirds have revealed a close link between vocal output and hearing. Now experiments in marmosets have shown that self-generated vocalizations can modulate the activity of neurons in the auditory cortex and even remodel their response properties.
متن کاملInhibitory Plasticity in Auditory Cortex
Arguably the most important property of neuronal circuits in general, and of cortical circuits in particular, is plasticity--the ability to change in response to past experience. While many studies of plasticity emphasize changes in excitatory transmission, in this issue of Neuron, Galindo-Leon et al. demonstrate the important role that increased inhibition may play in shaping cortical response...
